There are two articulations: the manubriosternal (sternomanubrial) and xiphisternal (xiphisternal)joints.The manubriosternal joint is between the manubrium and the body of the sternum.
The sternal angle indicates the manubriosternal joint. In adults this is a secondary cartilaginous joint (symphysis).Xiphisternal (xiphosternal) joints are between the xiphoid process and body of the sternum is a primary cartilaginous joint (synchrondrosis) and these bones are united by hyaline cartilage. By age 40 this joint has ossified.

What type of joint is the xiphisternal joint?
the joint is a symphysis and is the region where the body of the sternum articulates with the xiphoid process
The bone between the sternum and the scapula?
Sychondrosis (a type of hyaline cartillage) is the joint between the first rib and the sternum, otherwise referred to as the first sternocostal joint. this joint type is also found in the epiphyseal plates of long bones prior to fusion.
A joint that doesn't move?
The sternoclavicular joint is a joint which does not move. This is the area of cartilage which joins the clavicle (or collar bone) to the sternum (or breast bone).
How many saddle joints are in the human body?
There is the sternoclavicular-joint and the carpalmetacarpal-joint of the thumb. So in total: 4
What specific structure does the medial end of the clavicle articulate?
The lateral third has two surfaces, an upper and a lower; and two borders, an anterior and a posterior.
What type of joint is the xiphisternal joint?
the joint is a symphysis and is the region where the body of the sternum articulates with the xiphoid process
What type of joint connects the sternum and the first rib?
Synchondrosis
What type of joint joins the sternum and first rib?
These joints are called synchondrosis joints. These are a type of cartilaginous joint.
The bone between the sternum and the scapula?
Sychondrosis (a type of hyaline cartillage) is the joint between the first rib and the sternum, otherwise referred to as the first sternocostal joint. this joint type is also found in the epiphyseal plates of long bones prior to fusion.
What is the joint found at the end of the clavicles?
The lateral aspect of the clavicles is the humero-scapular joint. The medial aspect is the clavico-sternum joint (a fixed joint).
A joint that doesn't move?
The sternoclavicular joint is a joint which does not move. This is the area of cartilage which joins the clavicle (or collar bone) to the sternum (or breast bone).
The union of the manubrium and the body of the sternum is an important landmark of the chest and is callled?
The manubrium is united to the body of the sternum either by an amphiarthrodial joint-a piece of fibrocartilage connecting the segments-or by a diarthrodial joint, in which the articular surface of each bone is clothed with a lamina of cartilage.
What is sternocostal?
It is a joint found between the sternum (breastbone) and any of the ribs that attach to it.
How many bones connect the torso to the arm?
Gleno-humeral joint (scapula to humerus) Claviculo-acromial joint (clavicle to acromion of scapula) Sternoclavicular joint (attaches clavicle to sternum) Scapula articulates with the back of the chest so bones humerus (in the arm), clavicle sternum and scapula
What bone does the clavicle attach to at its proximal end?
The proximal end of the clavicle attaches to the manubrium of the sternum. This joint is called the acromiovlavicular joint.
What rib type attaches to the sternum by individual coastal cartilages?
Yes it does.
What bones make up the sternoclavicular joint?
Bones that are involved are the sternum and the ribs.
