Pectoral Girdle
This bone lies on the posterior aspect of the shoulder
What is the scapula?
The great tubercle is a bony landmark located on the lateral side of the most proximal portion of this bone
What is the humerus?
The radius bone is found on this side of the forearm
What is the lateral side?
The shallow anterior fossa on the distal Humerus
what is the coronoid fossa?
The anatomical landmark on the humerus just distal to the tubercles
What is the surgical neck?
The scapula is a flat, triangular-shaped bone with a prominent ridge running across this side of it
What is the posterior?
It is a common site for fractures due to its relatively narrow diameter
What is the surgical neck
The radius and ulna are attached to each other by this membrane
What is the interosseous membrane?
Where the biceps attaches to the radius
What is the radial tuberosity?
The sixth planet from the sun
what is saturn?
The sternal end of the clavicle articulates with this portion of the sternum
What is the manubrium
the biomechanical advantage of the deltoid tuberosity
What is a lever
On the distal end of the radius, allows for alignment with the ulna
What is the ulnar notch of the radius?
Proximal extension on the ulna to form the elbow
What is the olecranon process?
When one base in a series is changed,
such as ATTCG to ATTGG
What is a point mutation?
The supraspinous fossa lies between the superior border of the scapula and this collection of bones
What is the spine?
The anatomical landmark just proximal to the tubercles on the humerus
What is the anatomical neck?
The radius bone has a head that articulates with this portion of the ulna
What is the radial notch?
Located midway down the humerus, this is where a major shoulder muscle attaches
What is deltoid tuberosity?
9.8m/s/s
What is the acceleration due to gravity on earth?
Forms the socket of the pectoral girdle
What is the glenoid fossa?
This type of shoulder injury involves a tear to the labrum, specifically in the superior portion, often extending from anterior to posterior.
What is a SLAP tear?
Both bones of the forearm have this structure on their distal ends
What is/are styloid process(es)
lateral rounded distal portion of the humerus that articulates with the radius
What is the capitulum?
The point of the shoulder, allows for muscles and bones to meet.
What is the acromion process?
