(A) In the human skeleton,each hindlimb (leg) consists of $30$ bones.The bones of the hindlimb are as follows:$1$. Femur (thigh bone): $1$ per leg ($2$ total).$2$. Patella (kneecap): $1$ per leg ($2$ total).$3$. Tibia and Fibula (shank bones): $2$ per leg ($4$ total).$4$. Tarsals (ankle bones): $7$ per leg ($14$ total).$5$. Metatarsals (sole bones): $5$ per leg ($10$ total).$6$. Phalanges (digits): $14$ per leg ($28$ total).Therefore,for a single limb,the number of tarsals is $7$,metatarsals is $5$,and phalanges is $14$.
