The lateral malleolus found on the distal lateral surface of the fibula is responsible for the bony bulge on the lower leg.
The lateral malleolus is the prominence on the outer or lateral side of the ankle. It is pyramidal in form and somewhat flattened. In clinical significance, a bimalleolar fracture is an ankle fracture that involves both the medial and lateral malleolus. This condition is more common in women especially the 60 year old age group. Another clinical condition of the said anatomical structure is the trimalleolar fracture which involves the lateral, medial, and the distal posterior aspect of the tibia or the posterior malleolus. This is primarily caused by ligament damage and dislocation.

Explanation:
Homologous chromosomes are 2 physically different chromosomes that have the same genes but are not genetically identical. Sister chromatids are 2 copies of a single chromosome and so are genetically identical (they also are physically attached to one another).
Scientists try to use explanations of the natural world to understand patterns and make (PREDICTIONS) about natuarl events
