The patella is the knee-cap and protects the knee joint. The scapula is the shoulder blades and is related to arm and shoulder movement.
Scapul/o is the medical terminology combining for meaning scapula.
The clavicle (collarbone) and the humerus (upper arm bone) are attached to the scapula (shoulder blade) to form the shoulder joint.
The acromial end of the clavicle articulates with acromion of the scapula to form the acromioclavicular joint.Acromion process, in acromioclavicular joint
The humerus articulates with the scapula at the glenoid fossa to form the shoulder joint. Specifically, the head of the humerus sits in the shallow, concave glenoid cavity of the scapula. This ball-and-socket joint allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.
Groups of similar cells working together for a similar function are called tissues. The four tissue types are; connective, nervous, epithelial, and muscular.tissuesTissues
Both the patella and scapula are flat bones that serve as important components in the skeletal system, providing structural support and facilitating movement. The patella, or kneecap, protects the knee joint and enhances the leverage of the quadriceps muscle during leg extension. Similarly, the scapula, or shoulder blade, supports the shoulder joint and provides attachment points for muscles that facilitate arm movement. Both bones play crucial roles in their respective joints, contributing to overall mobility and stability.
Scapul/o is the medical terminology combining for meaning scapula.
A group of similar cells that perfrom a common function form a tissue. A group of similar tissues that perform a common function form an organ, organs form organ systems, and organ systems form organisms.
The Acromion Process of the Scapula meets the clavicle to form the Acromioclavicular Joint.
The clavicle and the humerus join with the scapula to form the shoulder girdle
The clavicle (collarbone) and the humerus (upper arm bone) are attached to the scapula (shoulder blade) to form the shoulder joint.
The scapula is a flat, triangular-shaped bone situated on the upper back. It has three borders (superior, medial, and lateral) and three angles (superior, inferior, and lateral). The scapula articulates with the clavicle and humerus to form the shoulder joint.
