Arm
In
anatomy, an arm is one of the
upper limbs of an animal. The term arm can also be used for analogous structures, such as one of the paired upper limbs of a four-legged animal, or the arms of an
octopus. Anatomically, the term arm refers specifically to the segment between the
shoulder and the
elbow. The segment between the elbow and
wrist is the
forearm. However, in colloquial speech the term arm often refers to the entire upper limb from shoulder to wrist.
