what are the 2 primary bones that make up the shoulder girdle?
Scapula and Clavicle
Muscle located on the anterior side, responsible for abduction, downward rotation and depression
Pectoralis Minor
Scapula moves laterally away from spinal column
Abduction
The glenoid cavity is located on which bone?
Scapula
Which joint connects the clavicle to the sternum?
Sternoclavicular Joint
Identify the indicated structure of the clavicle.
Sternal End
Muscle located on the posterior and lateral side of the body. Responsible for abduction and upward rotation.
Serratus anterior
Downward or inferior movement of scapula, as in returning to normal position.
Depression
Which motion occurs when the scapula is pulled toward the spine?
Adduction (retraction)
The shoulder girlde provides stability and movement for which joint?
Shoulder Joint
Identify the circled structure of the scapula.
Inferior Angle
Muscle located on the posterior side, responsible for adduction, downward rotation and elevation.
Rhomboids
Returning inferior angle inferomedially toward spinal column and glenoid fossa to normal position.
Downward Rotation
Which of the following muscles is NOT a primary mover of the shoulder girdle?
a. Trapezius
b. Levator Scapulae
c. Latissimus dorsi
d. Rhomboids
c. Latissimus dorsi
When you shrug your shoulders, which action is occuring at the scapula?
Elevation
Identify the indicated structure of the clavicle.
Acromial End
Muscle located on the posterior side, upper middle and lower fibers, responsible for several scapular actions including elevation, depression, upper rotation and adduction.
Trapezius
Scapula moves medially toward spinal column
Adduction
Which of the following injuries involves damage to the group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder?
Rotator cuff tears
Which joint connects the clavicle to the scapula?
Acromioclavicular joint
Identify the structure of the scapula with the red arrow.
Glenoid Cavity
Muscle located on the posterior side of the neck, responsible for elevation of the scapula.
Levator Scapulae
Turning glenoid fossa upward and moving inferior angle superolaterally away from spinal column to assist in raising arm.
Upward Rotation
A "seperated shoulder" is an injury to which part of the shoulder girlde?
Acromioclavicular joint
Which muscle primarily retracts the scapula.
Rhomboids
