Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distal Region of the Radius

In the medial surface, there is a concavity, called the ulnar notch, which articulates with the head of ulna, forming the distal radioulnar joint. The distal surface of the radius has two facets, for articulation with the scaphoid and lunate carpal bones.
