What's the difference between bone and intermetatarsal?
Bone
Definition:
(n.) The hard, calcified tissue of the skeleton of vertebrate animals, consisting very largely of calcic carbonate, calcic phosphate, and gelatine; as, blood and bone.
(n.) One of the pieces or parts of an animal skeleton; as, a rib or a thigh bone; a bone of the arm or leg; also, any fragment of bony substance. (pl.) The frame or skeleton of the body.
(n.) Anything made of bone, as a bobbin for weaving bone lace.

Intermetatarsal
Definition:
(a.) Between the metatarsal bones.
