Is the coronoid fossa on the lateral and posterior side of the humerus?
No, the coronoid fossa is on the lateral and anterior aspect of the humerus. It receives the coronoid process of the ulna during flexion of the elbow.
The coronoid process articulates with what depression on the distal end of the humerus?
The depression in the scapula can be either one of four different structures; the supraspinatus fossa, the infraspinatus fossa, the subscapular fossa, or the glenoid fossa. The problem is that none of these articulate with the ulna. The bone you are probably looking for is the humerus, and it articulates with the last one I mentioned, the glenoid fossa.
Anterior depression superior to the trochlea that receives part of the ulna whenthe forearm is flexed?
Olecranon fossa receives when extended Coronoid fossa receives it when flexed
Fossa on distal posterior surface of humerus?
olecranon fossa
Bone that contains the olecranon fossa?
The bone that contains the olecranon fossa is the humerus, which is located in the upper arm. The olecranon fossa is a depression on the posterior side of the humerus that accommodates the olecranon process of the ulna when the arm is extended.
What muscle originates on the distal anterior humerus and inserts onto the coronoid process of the ulna to cause arm reflexion?
The brachialis muscle originates on the distal anterior humerus and insert at the coronoid process. The function of the brachialis is flexion at the elbow.
Name the depression on the ulna into which the humerus inserts?
Trochlear notch
What is the depression on the ulna into which the humerus inserts?
olecranon fossa
What is the glenoid fossa of the scapula articulates with?
The glenoid fossa of the scapula articulates with the head of the humerus, forming the shoulder joint. It is a shallow, cup-shaped socket that allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder joint.
What does the olecranon fossa articulate with?
The olecranon fossa of the humerus articulates with the olecranon process of the ulna when the elbow is extended. This forms the back part of the elbow joint.
How do you find what side of the body a humerus bone belongs to?
The head of the humerus faces medially, while the olecranon fossa is posterior.
What bone sits in the olecranon fossa?
The olecranon fossa is a depression in the humerus bone of the upper arm, and it is specifically designed to accommodate the olecranon process of the ulna bone. The olecranon is a prominent bony projection at the end of the ulna that forms the bony part of the elbow.
