∙ 12y agoThere is a joint capsule full of synnovial fluid and the articular surfaces of both of the head of the humerus and the glenoid cavity are very reciprocal in their shape meaning that they fit together like a ball in glove for smooth movements

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.
With the clavicals (as well as) The coastal cartilage of the first and second ribs and the body of the sternum.
The shoulder joint is one of synovial (means a joint which is covered by a membrane named synovial) joints this means it allows movement freely unlike other joints such as suture lines of your skull. It's also called ball and socket type of joint means the head of humerus ( a bone of your arm) is inside a large cavity of your scapula ( a bone of your shoulder).
The humerus is the bone in the arm running from the shoulder to the elbow.its right beside your elbow when people say you've hit your "funny bone" its because its called the humerous and "funny bone" is just a nick nameBetween the elbow and the shoulderThe humerus is the bone of the upper arm.your upper arm. from the shoulder down to the elbowArm.The humerus is located above the radius in your arm. Bone in arm.
Humeral head. But, which cavity? Clavicle also joins the scapula.
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.
the head of the humerus
the clapsula and humerus
The glenoid cavity is found in the upper body, where the humerus joins the scapulaand is referred to as the shoulder socket. It is not very deep and allows for a great range of motion. The acetabulum is in the lower body, where the ilium joins the femur. It is a deep socket and is very secure for the support and ability to bear the weight of our bodies

Shoulder joint is highly mobile joint. The head of the humerus is to large as compared to the cavity on scapula. Still the dislocation of the joint is very uncommon. You have four muscles attached around the head of the humerus. Subscapularis, supraspinatus, infraspinatus and teres minor. These muscles keep the head of the humerus tightly opposed to scapula regardless of the position of the arm. This prevents the dislocation of the shoulder joint.
The Glenoid cavity is located in a humans shoulder.
The shoulder joint is one of synovial (means a joint which is covered by a membrane named synovial) joints this means it allows movement freely unlike other joints such as suture lines of your skull. It's also called ball and socket type of joint means the head of humerus ( a bone of your arm) is inside a large cavity of your scapula ( a bone of your shoulder).
