**Foot Anatomy Identification Exercise**

---

### Instruction:
Identify bones A and B. [You need to name them in correct order.]

---

### Explanation of Diagram:
The image provided displays a detailed skeletal structure of a human foot. It highlights specific bones within the foot that are labeled as A and B.

**Bone Identification:**
- **Bone A:** This bone is indicated by an arrow pointing to the first metatarsal, located in the mid-foot region and aligned with the big toe (the largest and most central bone in the toes).
- **Bone B:** Indicated by another arrow, this bone is the calcaneus, commonly referred to as the heel bone, located below the ankle in the hind-foot region.

This diagram is designed to help students and learners familiarize themselves with the foot's skeletal anatomy, specifically the key bones within the foot structure. 

By understanding the placement and names of these bones, one can gain better insights into foot mechanics, potential injury points, and overall foot health.
