Appendicular Skeleton Flashcards
Humerus (13)
Head-attaches to glenoid fossa of scapula
Greater tubercle-anterior, opposite of head end
Lesser tubercle-anterior, middle in front of head
Intertubercular sulcus-b/w g&l tubercle
Pectoral ridge-passes thru shaft, spirals
Deltoid ridge-triangular bump on shaft
Shaft-body of humerus
Supracondylar foramen-medial oval foramen above coronoid fossa
Coronoid fossa-medial, above trochlea
Radial fossa-anterior/lateral, above capitulum
*Olecranon fossa-posterior/above trochlea
Medial epicondyle-attach ulna, above trochlea
Lateral epicondyle-attach radius, above capit.
Capitulum-smaller, artic w/ head of radius
Trochlea-bigger, attaches to ulna
Scapula (6)
Glenoid fossa-attaches humerus Acromion-high part of shoulder on top of humerus head, attached to spine; attaches clavicle Metacromion-posterior from spine Spine-posterior divides into 2 fossae Infraspinous fossa-beneath spine Supraspinous fossa-above spine *Coracoid-anterior hook-like,
