What is the acromial extremity and the acromioclavicular joint?
The three borders of the scapula
What are medial, lateral, and superior?
This angle of the scapula is where the axillary and vertebral borders meet

What is the manubrium?
This angle of the scapula is also referred to as the head of the scapula
What is the lateral angle?
The thick, beaklike process that projects anteriorly beneath the clavicle
What is the coracoid process?
The lateral angle ends laterally in this shallow depression
What is the glenoid cavity or fossa?
The roughened raised triangular elevation along the anterolateral surface of the body of the humerus; a site of muscle attachement.
What is the deltoid tuberosity?
This end of the clavicle is flattened and has a downward curvature at its' point of attachment
What is the acromial extremity?
Where the coracoid process is located on a lateral view of the scapula in relation to the glenoid cavity
What is anterior?
The large concavity located on the anterior surface of the scapula
What is subscapular fossa?
The thicker edge that extends from the glenoid cavity to the inferior angle
What is the lateral border?
The lesser tubercle is located anteriorly and the greater tubercle is located laterally in this specific projection of the proximal humerus.
What is a True AP projection(external rotation)?
The _________ clavicle is usually shorter and less curved while the ____________ clavicle tends to be thicker and more curved (2 part answer in order)
What is female, male?
Located on the superior border and partially formed by the base of the coracoid process
What is the suprascapular notch?
The expanded distal end of the spine that extends superiorly and posteriorly to the glenoid fossa if looking at the scapula in a lateral view
What is the acromion?
Separated by the crest of the scapular spine on the posterior aspect (2 part answer)
