What else can I help you with?
What structure is directly superior to the head of the humerus?
The acromion, which protrude from the scapula, is the body structure directly superior to the head of the humerus.
What muscle originates on the anterior surface of the scapula and inserts on the proximal anterior humerus?
The muscle you are referring to is the subscapularis muscle. It originates on the subscapular fossa of the scapula and inserts on the lesser tubercle of the humerus. It is responsible for medial rotation of the shoulder joint.
What is the bone in the upper arm?
The humerus. Edit: Its the humerus its easy to remember because of the phrase "funny bone" funny=humorous=humerus
The anatomical neck of the humerus includes?
The anatomical neck of the humerus is a constriction just below the head of the humerus bone where it joins the greater and lesser tubercles. It serves as the attachment site for the joint capsule and the ligaments that stabilize the shoulder joint. While it is an anatomical landmark, it does not have a direct function in terms of movement or muscle attachment.
The anatomic neck of the humerus is distal to the surgical neck of the humerus?
Actually, the anatomic neck of the humerus is proximal to the surgical neck of the humerus. The anatomic neck is the slightly constricted region below the head of the humerus, while the surgical neck is the region of the humerus prone to fractures located distal to the tubercles.
What structure is directly superior to the head of the humerus?
The acromion, which protrude from the scapula, is the body structure directly superior to the head of the humerus.
The glenoid cavity of the scapula articulates with the what of the humerus?
the head of the humerus
Function of teres major?
The main function of the teres major is its assistance with the movement of the humerus. It helps with the downward and backward movement of this and it also stabilizes the humeral head in the glenoid cavity.
What muscle originates on the anterior surface of the scapula and inserts on the proximal anterior humerus?
The muscle you are referring to is the subscapularis muscle. It originates on the subscapular fossa of the scapula and inserts on the lesser tubercle of the humerus. It is responsible for medial rotation of the shoulder joint.
Does the biceps brachii muscle originate or insert on the humerus?
It inserts onto the humerus. It originates from the coracoid process of the scapula. There are 2 parts - Long head and short head. The long head is connected to the coracoid process by a tendon that comes up between the tubercules of the humerous. The short head is connected directly to the humerus.
The glenoid cavity of the scapula articulates with what of the humerus?
The glenoid cavity of the scapula articulates with the head of the humerus, forming the glenohumeral joint, also known as the shoulder joint. This articulation allows for the wide range of motion seen in the shoulder joint.
Bone with nail like head articulates with the capitulm of the humerus?
Capitulum articulates with the head of radius

What is the function of humerus in horse?
A horse's humerus is essential to determining how the horse's front end will move. A longer, more vertical humerus is preferable as it allows for better jumping and a better gait.
The anatomic neck of the humerus is distal to the surgical neck of the humerus?
Actually, the anatomic neck of the humerus is proximal to the surgical neck of the humerus. The anatomic neck is the slightly constricted region below the head of the humerus, while the surgical neck is the region of the humerus prone to fractures located distal to the tubercles.
How do you find what side of the body a humerus bone belongs to?
You can determine the side of the body a humerus bone belongs to by looking at certain features such as the location of the head and the orientation of the trochlea and capitulum. The head of the humerus should be facing medially and the trochlea should face posteriorly to help identify the left or right side.
