attached to acromial process and scapula
on clavicle
Acromial end
What are the four features on the scapula?
Spine
Acromion process
Coracoid process
Glenoid cavity

What parts are considered the upper limb? (Hint:6)
humerus ulna radius carpals metacarpals phalanges
This part articulates with scapula, radius, and ulna
