What else can I help you with?
Does the scapula attach itself to the axial skeleton?
Yes, the scapula attaches to the axial skeleton indirectly through the clavicle. The clavicle is the bone that connects the scapula to the sternum, which is part of the axial skeleton.
What joint connects the axial and appendicular skeletons?
The sternoclavicular joint connects the axial skeleton (through the sternum) to the appendicular skeleton (through the clavicle).
What is the shoulder girdle bone that is unattached to the axial skeleton?
scapula : either of a pair of large triangular bones lying one in each dorsal lateral part of the thorax, being the principal bone of the corresponding half of the shoulder girdle, and articulating with the corresponding clavicle or coracoid -called also shoulder bladeScapula
Where does the clavicle articulate with the axial skeleton?
The clavicle articulates with the axial skeleton at the sternum or breastbone, specifically at the sternoclavicular joint.
What is found in the axial skeleton vertebrae scapula ischium calacaneus?
The axial skeleton consists of the vertebrae, which protect the spinal cord. The scapula is a flat, triangular bone in the shoulder, which connects with the humerus. The ischium is one of the three bones that make up the hip bone, along with the ilium and pubis. The calcaneus is the largest tarsal bone in the foot, commonly known as the heel bone.
Does the scapula attach itself to the axial skeleton?
Yes, the scapula attaches to the axial skeleton indirectly through the clavicle. The clavicle is the bone that connects the scapula to the sternum, which is part of the axial skeleton.
What joins the scapula to the axial skeleton?
The clavicle and the humerus join with the scapula to form the shoulder girdle
At what joint do you find the only bony attachment of the shoulders to the axial skeleton?
The only joints joining the upper extremities to the axial skeleton are the acromioclavicular joints, a joint between the acromion on the scapula and the clavicle.
What joint connects the axial and appendicular skeletons?
The sternoclavicular joint connects the axial skeleton (through the sternum) to the appendicular skeleton (through the clavicle).
What is the single point of attachment of the pectoral girdle to the axial skeleton?
spinal cordorribs;-)
What is the shoulder girdle bone that is unattached to the axial skeleton?
scapula : either of a pair of large triangular bones lying one in each dorsal lateral part of the thorax, being the principal bone of the corresponding half of the shoulder girdle, and articulating with the corresponding clavicle or coracoid -called also shoulder bladeScapula
What is one fact about the clavicle?
It is the only bone in the pectoral girdle (humerus, scapula, clavicle) which attaches to the axial skeleton. Your arm is held onto the rest of the skeletal system by the clavicles attachment, ligaments and muscles.
Where does the clavicle articulate with the axial skeleton?
The clavicle articulates with the axial skeleton at the sternum or breastbone, specifically at the sternoclavicular joint.
What is found in the axial skeleton vertebrae scapula ischium calacaneus?
The axial skeleton consists of the vertebrae, which protect the spinal cord. The scapula is a flat, triangular bone in the shoulder, which connects with the humerus. The ischium is one of the three bones that make up the hip bone, along with the ilium and pubis. The calcaneus is the largest tarsal bone in the foot, commonly known as the heel bone.
Shoulder girdle bone that acts as a brace and articulates with the axial skeleton?
The bone of the shoulder girdle that acts as a brace and articulates with the axial skeleton is the clavicle, commonly known as the collarbone. It connects the sternum (breastbone) at the manubrium to the scapula (shoulder blade), providing support and stability to the shoulder. The clavicle helps to transmit forces from the upper limb to the axial skeleton, playing a crucial role in maintaining the position of the shoulder.
How are the extremities attached to the axial portion of the body?
The extremities, such as the arms and legs, are attached to the axial portion of the body through joints. The arms are attached to the axial skeleton through the shoulders, while the legs are attached through the hips. These joints allow for movement and flexibility.
What does your shoulder girdle consist of?
I'm assuming it's the clavicle bone which attaches to the sternum on the axial skeleton
