    The longest bone in the human body is the femur. The smallest bones are located in the ears and are called the hammer, anvil, and stirrup in both plain and fancy medical terminology. Bone marrow located inside bones is responsible for making blood cells. Hinge joints, like those found in the elbow, allow movement similar to door hinges.
