The bones of the lower limbs, specifically the femur (thigh bone), tibia and fibula (shin bones), and the bones of the feet support the body's weight. Additionally, the pelvis supports the weight of the upper body and transfers it to the bones of the lower limbs. The bones of the upper limbs (arms and hands) do not support the body's weight.
