how do you describe in detail of a phalanx
About 500 to 600 people were in a Phalanx.
A phalanx is a type of military formation done by the ancient Greeks. It was almost impossible to get through.
A phalanx was a military formation of packed ranks of infantry locked into formation with spears providing offensive and defensive capability, and shields providing lateral and overhead protection.
There are two phalanges in a human thumb: the proximal phalanx and the distal phalanx, making a total of two phalanges.
The joint between the phalanges that is furthest away from the attachment to the wrist is called the distal interphalangeal joint (DIP). This joint is located between the distal phalanx and the middle phalanx in the fingers and between the distal phalanx and the proximal phalanx in the thumb. The DIP allows for flexion and extension of the fingers.
Phalanges (or phalanxes) is the plural of phalanx.
The thumb and big toe have two phalanges.
Phalanges is plural, Phalange (or Phalanx) is singular.

Yes, the phalanges are the bones that make up the fingers and toes. Each finger and toe has three phalanges: the proximal phalanx closest to the hand or foot, the middle phalanx, and the distal phalanx at the tip of the digit.
The phalanges of the big toe consist of two segments: the proximal phalanx and the distal phalanx. Unlike the other toes, which have three phalanges (proximal, middle, and distal), the big toe lacks a middle phalanx.

The 14 phalanges in the human hand consist of three bones in each of the four fingers (index, middle, ring, and pinky) and two bones in the thumb. The names of the phalanges are: proximal phalanx, middle phalanx, and distal phalanx for each of the four fingers, plus the proximal and distal phalanx for the thumb. Thus, the complete list includes: proximal phalanx (4), middle phalanx (3), and distal phalanx (4) for the fingers, and proximal phalanx (1) and distal phalanx (1) for the thumb.
The pollex is the thumb and it has only 2 phalanges, the distal and the proximal. all of the other fingers have a distal, middle and proximal.
