Practical 2: Appendicular Flashcards
Collarbone
Slender doubly curved bone
Clavicle
End that attaches to the sternal manubrium Rounded or triangular in cross section Projects above manubrium Sits in clavicular notch Skinny end of clavicle
Medial end (sternal)
Fat of clavicle
Flattened where it articulates with scapula to form part of the shoulder joint
Lateral end (acromial)
Main part of clavicle
Body
Near sternal end of clavicle
Rough patch
Costal tuberosity
Near acromial end of clavicle
Part that sticks out
Conoid tubercle
Points down on clavicle
Groove on the body
Subclavian groove
How to orient scapula
Spine is posterior and acromion is lateral
Shoulder blades
Generally triangular
Wings of human
Scapula
Where the shoulder pokes out posteriorly on scapula
Scapular spine
Enlarged roughened end of spine on the scapula
Process
