A

stabilize the scapula and pull upward and forward on the rib cage

24
Q

pectoralis minor innervation

A

medial pectoral nerve

25
Q

deltoid origin/insertion

A

origin- continuous line from the lateral third of the clavicle to the acrominon and the lateral third of the spine of the scapula
insertion - v shaped roughness on the lateral upper humerus called the deltoid tubercle

A

origin- scapula
insertion- humerus
function- dynamic ligaments to help reinforce the shoulder joint

33
Q

subscapularis origin/insertion

A

origin- most of anterior surface of scapula
insertion- lesser tubercle of the humerus

34
Q

subscapularis function
