QuestionChoice
The arrow is pointing to the distal row of bones. A mnemonic to help remember the bones from the proximal row from the scaphoid on the radial side to the distal row starting from the hamate on the ulnar side to the thumb is:

**S**o **L**ong **T**o **P**inky, **H**ere **C**omes **T**he **T**humb

**S**caphoid **L**unate **T**riquetrum **P**isiform, **H**amate **C**apitate **T**rapezoid **T**rapezium

The capitate is the largest carpal bone, it also articulates with the third metacarpal bone.
