Non-axial. The only axis like movement the scapula has, is upper and lower rotation. Protraction (abduction) and Retraction (adduction) are translation motions.
Scapular protraction is moving the scapula (shoulder blade) forward. The opposite is scapular retraction. To "feel" the definition, first try retraction -- pull your shoulders back to squeeze your shoulder blades together as if you're trying to hold a pencil between them. Now do the opposite -- that opposite movement is scapular protraction.
No, moving a body part anteriorly is called protraction. Retraction refers to moving a body part posteriorly.

To "feel" the definition, first try retraction -- pull your shoulders back to squeeze your shoulder blades together as if you're trying to hold a pencil between them. Now do the opposite -- that opposite movement is scapular protraction.
The shoulder girdle is responsible for movements such as protraction, retraction, elevation, depression, and upward and downward rotation of the scapula.
The movement of flexion and extension is not directly associated with the scapula. The scapula primarily contributes to movements such as protraction, retraction, elevation, and depression.
protraction, retraction
Protraction of the mandible (jaw bone) is making an under-bite. (protrusion of mandible) Retraction of mandible would be creating an over-bite.

When you cross your arms, you may observe protraction and retraction movements at the sternoclavicular joint as the clavicles move forward or backward. At the acromioclavicular joint, there can be elevation and depression movements as the clavicles move up or down slightly.
a push up (shoulder horizontal abduction/adduction, elbow flexion/extension, and scapular retraction/protraction) is done around a vertical axes, in the transverse plane, while lying pronated. The axes of motion change relative to the body so a vertical axes will not always be perpendicular to the ground but more importantly traverse through the body from head to toe regardless of the body's relative position to earth.
x axis is on horizontal plane and y axis is on vertical plane.
There are many: extension, flexion, supination, pronation, abduction, adduction, lateral rotation, medial rotation, circumduction, elevation, depression, protraction, retraction, inversion, eversion, and opposition.
Yes, in a complex plane, the horizontal axis is the real axis, and the vertical axis is the imaginary axis.
