What else can I help you with?
Where is the glenoid cavity located?
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.
Anatomical position humerus to scapula?
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.
What type of joint does the head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity?
The head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula to form a ball-and-socket joint known as the shoulder joint. This joint allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.
What is the structural classification for glenohumerAL joint?
The glenohumeral joint is a ball-and socket joint that is formed between two bones, the humerus and the scapula. The humerus head, acting as the ball, fits into the end of the scapula known as the glenoid, the socket.
Is the shoulder a ball-and-socket joint?
No; the elbow has a hinge joint, but does not have a ball and socket joint.

What is the cavity that serves as the socket for the femur to fit into?
Acetabulum
What bone fits into the cavity of the scapula bone?
Humeral head. But, which cavity? Clavicle also joins the scapula.

Is scapula a ball and socket joint in the skeleton?
The scapula is a bone, but the shoulder is an example of a ball and socket joint.

The glenohumeral joint is a ball-and socket joint that is formed between two bones, the humerus and the scapula. The humerus head, acting as the ball, fits into the end of the scapula known as the glenoid, the socket.
Where is glendoid cavity located?
The Scapula.
Which Region of the scapula does articulate with another bone?
The glenoid cavity or glenoid fossa of scapula.
Is the shoulder a ball-and-socket joint?
No; the elbow has a hinge joint, but does not have a ball and socket joint.
The glenoid cavity of the scapula articulates with the what of the humerous?
head
What bones form ball and socket joint?
In the superior extremity you have ball of humerus (Head) and socket (Glenoid cavity) of the scapula. In the inferior extremity, you have ball of femur (Head of femur) and socket ( Acetabulum) of hip bone.
