Which Region of the scapula does articulate with another bone?
The glenoid cavity or glenoid fossa of scapula.
What are markings include glenoid cavity and acromion?
Scapula
The lateral tip of the shoulder is the what Part of the scapula?
The medial border of the scapula is at the medial end of the spine of the scapula. This border is also called the vertebral border.
What is one of the gliding and sliding joint?
No, the Humeroscapular Joint is a ball and socket joint. Although shallow the head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity of the Scapula. This is one of the reasons that shoulder dislocations are so common. The other being the lack of support at the inferior portion of the joint.
What is the function of rota-tors cuff in case of shoulder joint?
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint. Its main function is to stabilize the joint and assist in shoulder movements, such as lifting and rotating the arm. It also helps to keep the head of the upper arm bone (humerus) within the shallow socket of the shoulder blade (scapula).
The glenoid cavity of the scapula articulates with the what of the humerus?
the head of the humerus
Where is the glenoid cavity located?
no, the glenoid cavity is not in the clavicle. it is in the scapula, next to the acromion process and the coracoid process, which provide stability. the glenoid cavity articulates with the head of the humerus as a ball-and-socket joint.
What articulates with the manubrium?
With the clavicals (as well as) The coastal cartilage of the first and second ribs and the body of the sternum.
The glenoid cavity of the scapula articulates with the what of the humerous?
head
What is the name of the bone that contains the glenoid cavity?
humerus
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.
What articulates with the glenoid fossa?
The humerusOn the lateral angle of the scapula is a shallow pyriform, articular surface, the glenoid cavity (or glenoid fossa) of scapulaComes from Greek: gléne, "socket"), which is directed lateralward and forward and articulates with the head of the humerus; it is broader below than above and its vertical diameter is the longest.
What is the cavity that serves as the socket of the scapula?
The glenoid cavity or glenoid fossa is the socket in the scapula for the arm bone.glenoid fossaglenoid cavity or glenoid fossa
What type of joint does the head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity?
Ball and socket
What is the bone in the human body that articulates with the humerus and radius?
The shoulder is composed of the clavicle (collarbone), scapula (shoulder blade) and humerus (upper arm bone). The roof of the shoulder is formed the acromion. The shoulder actually has two joints to facilitate its movement.The acromioclavicular (AC) joint is located between the acromion and clavicle. The glenohumeral joint, or shoulder joint, is a ball-and-socket joint where the top of the humerus (the ball) fits into the glenoid cavity of the scapula (the socket). Muscles, tendons, and ligaments hold these bones together. Articular cartilage covers the surface of the shoulder joint, allowing the bones to glide smoothly and protects and cushions the joints.
Which Region of the scapula does articulate with another bone?
The glenoid cavity or glenoid fossa of scapula.
What are markings include glenoid cavity and acromion?
Scapula
