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.
Non-axial. The only axis like movement the scapula has, is upper and lower rotation. Protraction (abduction) and Retraction (adduction) are translation motions.
The scope of human anatomy and physiology includes studying the structure and function of the human body. Key terminologies in anatomy include terms for body regions, directional terms, and anatomical planes. In physiology, key terminologies include terms related to body systems, homeostasis, and cellular processes.
In terms of reproductive anatomy, males have testes that produce sperm, while females have ovaries that produce eggs. In terms of physiology, males have a penis and produce testosterone, while females have a uterus and produce estrogen.
Abduction Abduction also means "away from the body"
