superior, inferior, lateral angle

29
Q

angle located at the junction of the superior and medial border (T2)

A

superior angle

30
Q

angle marked by shallow glenoid cavity

A

lateral angle

31
Q

angle that lies over the 7th rib, or over the 7th intercostals space (T7)

A

inferior angle

32
Q

significance of superior angle of scapula

A

separates the attachments of subscapularis and teres minor and major

33
Q

significance of lateral angle

A

attachment for rhomboids major, minor, levator scapula

34
Q

significance of inferior angle

A

gives origin to the inferior belly of omohyoid

35
Q

this border runs from the inferior angle to the lateral angle of the scapula

A

lateral (axillary) border

36
Q

border approx 2 inches from the spinous process of the thoracic vertebra; extends from the inferior to the superior angle

A

medial border (vertebral)

37
Q

border that is thin, sharp, and shortest. at its anterolateral end, it is separated from the root of the coracoids process by the suprascapular notch

A

superior border

38
Q

slightly concave; tilted upwardly about 5 degrees relative temperature the scapular medial border, which articulates with the humeral head to form GH joint

A

glenoid fossa

39
Q

found at the posterior surface of the scapula, located superior to the spine of scapula

A

supraspinous/supraspinatus fossa

40
Q

found at the posterior surface of the scapula, inferior to the spine of scapula

A

infraspinous fossa

41
Q

shallow convcavity found at the anterior surface of scapula

A

subscapular fossa

42
Q

a less distinct tubercle located superior to glenoid cavity

A

supraglenoid tubercle

43
Q

large triangular tubercle located inferior to glenoid fossa

A

infraglenoid tubercle

44
Q

an anterolateral projection of the spine, arches over gh jointband articulates w clavicle

shoulder’s summit

A

acromion process

45
Q

a hook like structure that projects anterolaterally and is positioned directly inferior to the lateral part of clavicle

A

coracoid process

46
Q

projection on the upper part of the dorsal surface of scapula; corresponds to T3 vetebral level

A

spine of scapula

47
Q

small but distinct, lies immediately medial to the root of coracoid process

A

suprascapular notch

48
Q

the region between the lateral angle of the scapula and the attachment of spine to the posterior surface of scapula

A

spinoglenoid notch

49
Q

the longest at largest bone in the upper limb

A

humerus (prox to midpart)

50
Q

forms less than half of a spheroid, faces medially and superiorly

A

humeral head

51
Q

significance of humeral head

A

articulate w the much smaller glenoid cavity of scapula
