What body parts start with the letter K?

Here are some body parts that start with the letter “K”:

1. Knee – The joint connecting the thigh and lower leg.
2. Kidney – One of the two organs in the body responsible for filtering waste from the blood and producing urine.
3. Knee cap (Patella) – The small, flat bone that forms the front of the human knee joint.

These are the primary body parts that begin with the letter “K.”

In addition to the knee, kidney, and knee cap, there are very few other body parts that start with the letter “K” in common anatomical terminology. However, there are a few more related terms or parts that might be worth mentioning:

4. Keratine – A protein found in hair, skin, and nails, though not a body part in itself, it’s essential to the structure of these body parts.
5. Keratitis – Inflammation of the cornea of the eye, though it’s a condition rather than a specific body part.

Anatomical terms starting with “K” are quite rare in comparison to other letters of the alphabet.
