Ch 8 Skeletal and Upper Appendicular Flashcards
appendicular section
outer body
axial section
skull and vertebrae
pectoral girdle
- Supports the upper limb
- Attachment of muscles that move arm
clavicle
- Sternal (medial) end connects to sternum
- Acromial (lateral) end attaches to scapula
clavicle ligaments
- Conoid tubercle
- Lateral
- Costal tuberosity
- Medial
where does clavicle connect
acromiclavicular joint (AC Joint)
sight of most fractures
Scapula
flat bone
3 borders and 3 angles
glenoid cavity
spinal scapula bone
two bumps = acromion process and corocoid process
3 borders of scapula
- Superior border
- Medial border
- Lateral border
3 angles of scapula
- Superior angle
- Medial angle
- Lateral angle
glenoid cavity
holds the humerus

greater and lesser tubercles
- Top corner bumps of humerus
Intertubercular sulcus
- Between greater and lesser tubercle
Distal end of Humerus
condyles
Fossae for projections of forearm bones
Condyles
- trochlea and capitulum articulate w forearm bones
Hinge part of arm
Medial and lateral epicondyle
Fossae for projections of forearm bones
Radial fossa
Coronoid fossa
Olecrannon fossa
Radial fossa
Where the radius goes
Coronoid fossa
Where the ulna goes
Olecrannon fossa
Big on the backside of bone
Radius and Ulna
- Radius lateral to ulna in anatomical position (supination)
- Radius crosses over ulna in pronation
Radius Proximal end
- Head works w humerus
- Neck just below head
- Radial tuberosity
