Where is the acromial end on the clavicle?
The acromium is a region of your shoulder blade. The clavicle is your collarbone. Where the two articulate or form a joint is the acromioclavicular joint. You can palpate this by following your collarbone towards your shoulder until you feel a notch. That is pretty much putting your fingers right on that joint.
Where does the clavicle articulate with the scapula?
The acromial end of the clavicle articulates with acromion of the scapula to form the acromioclavicular joint.Acromion process, in acromioclavicular joint
Why is the clavicle said to follow a sinuous curve?
The clavicle is said to follow a sinuous curve because of its S-shaped structure, with two gentle curves at the sternal and acromial ends. This shape allows the clavicle to effectively transfer forces from the arm to the central part of the body while providing flexibility and mobility to the shoulder joint.
The clavicle is to the ribs?
Clavicle and scapula bones have attachment to thorax by joint and/or muscles. So they are overlapping to the thorax and superior extremity. Conventionally they are placed in superior extremity.
Is the acromial region proximal to the olecranon?
No, the acromial region is more proximal and superior to the olecranon. The acromial region refers to the part of the shoulder formed by the acromion process of the scapula, while the olecranon is the bony tip of the elbow.
What bone has a sternal and acromial end?

What is the upper extremity of the lungs that extends above the clavicle called?
Apex
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

How do you make someone fall asleep by grabbing their shoulder?
Its not actually the shoulder your grabbing. You grab underneath the acromial (clavicle bone) and there is a pressure point there. You can press it hard enough so they pass out but not fall asleep.
What part of the human body is served by subclavian vessel?
The superior or the upper extremity is served by the subclavian artery and vein. Subclavian means below the clavicle bone.
Is the acromial region proximal to the olecranon?
No, the acromial region is more proximal and superior to the olecranon. The acromial region refers to the part of the shoulder formed by the acromion process of the scapula, while the olecranon is the bony tip of the elbow.
Is the acromial body region inferior to the thoracic region?
Yes, the acromial region is inferior to the thoracic region. The acromial region is located on the shoulder, specifically at the lateral end of the spine of the scapula. The thoracic region refers to the chest area, which is above the shoulder region.
What are the bony landmarks of the clavicle?
The bony landmarks of the clavicle include the acromial end (which articulates with the acromion of the scapula), the sternal end (which articulates with the sternum), and the conoid tubercle and trapezoid line (which serve as attachment sites for ligaments).
