käsivartojen
Käsivarsien refers to the arms in Finnish. The term encompasses the entire upper limb, from the shoulder down to the fingertips. In anatomical terms, it includes the humerus (upper arm bone), the radius and ulna (forearm bones), and the various muscles, nerves, and blood vessels that facilitate movement and sensation. The arms are crucial for a wide range of activities, including lifting, carrying, reaching, and fine motor skills. The musculature of the käsivarsien allows for powerful movements like pushing and pulling, as well as delicate manipulations. The skeletal structure provides support and leverage, while the nervous system transmits signals for both voluntary and involuntary actions. Blood vessels supply the tissues with oxygen and nutrients, essential for their function. The term "käsivarsi" is commonly used in everyday conversation when referring to the arms, whether discussing physical exercise, injuries, or simply describing the body.
