Which Word?
These brain teasers rely on your ability to recognize groups of common attributes. For each of these puzzles you'll need to figure out why the words or letters are grouped as they are. Sometimes you will be asked to pick the odd-one-out or to place a new word into the correct group.
In the two groups of words below, there is a word in each group that belongs in the other group. Which words can be swapped?
Group A:
1) Femur
2) Metacarpals
3) Fibula
4) Patella
5) Tibia
Group B:
1) Ulna
2) Humerus
3) Carpal
4) Radius
5) Metatarsals
Answer
Metacarpals and Metatarsals. Group A are the names of some of the leg and foot bones. Group B are the names of some of the arm bones.

| I agree the hint was very vague; beings all 10 items are bones...but it did make me think about where each bone comes from, so it wasn't bad. Good teaser, I got the elbow; no clue on the other. You studing to be a doctor, or are you one? |
