I believe it is the plantaris. You can further investigate at http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_leg Hope this is helpful.

Becuase \n\nProximal means nearer to the center (trunk of the body) or to the point of attachment to the body. If another reference point is given, such as the heart, the proximal point of another organ or extremity is the point closest to the heart -- central rather than peripheral.\n\nDistal refers to sites located away from the center or midline of the body. The hand is distal to the shoulder. The thumb is distal to the wrist\n\nIt has to do with the relation to the center of the body not a specific body part.  I hope that helps.

No, "double jointed" is simply a misleading laymen's term for someone who is vary flexable. There is no scientific grounding in the term. there are people who can bend amazingly but chances are there bones are just like mine and yours. I think flexibility has more to do with musles.

Not the tailbone; probably not arm or leg bones- ribs are pretty important, so are the spine and the skull

In anatomy, Flexion is movement whereby bones or other objects are brought closer together. For example, flexion of the arm involves the forearm being brought closer to the arm. Note that flexion only occurs along the sagittal plane, i.e. from the forward to backward direction, and not side-to-side direction, which would be called abduction.

The technical Medical Terminology is: Eponychium...Also known as the "Cuticle." However, what do you mean by after the cuticle?  If you are talking proximal of cuticle, it is called "Proximal Nail Fold." If you mean distal of cuticle, you reach the free edge of the nail.

According to a column that I read written by Joël Carbonnel, "Nature has never been able to count above five."\n\nA researcher has discovered that when the limbs have more than five digits they become distorted into a bow-legged shape which seriously interferes with normal walking or running.\n\nhttp://www.positivehealth.com/permit/Articles/Regular/joel74.htm

Phalanges refer to both the fingers and the toes. There are three phalanges in each digit of the hand and foot, except the thumb and large toe which only have two.

wow, weird question, and not sure whether you're telling the truth or not, but I have the same thing.  It's a medical condition if you were born with it.  I have since forgotten the name, but it is not harmful.  \n\nActually, there is a bit of evidence suggesting that humans will eventually not have a 5th (pinky) toe.  If that's truth, it means you are more genetically advanced since your toe is already becoming a vestigial digit.
