The scapula is not only moved by one muscle, but several. All the muscles around it that connect to it assist in moving it in a certain way whether it be moving it closer to the spine in adduction, away from the spine in abduction, elevating it, or rotating it. The subscapularis, romboids, trapezius, supraspinatus, infraspinatus, latisimus dorsi, levator scapuli, teres, and some other rotator cuff muscles all move the scapula. -elias

Type of movement trapezius produces?
stabilizes, raises, retracts, and rotates scapula; adducts scapula and elevates /depresses scapula stabilizes, raises, retracts, and rotates scapula; adducts scapula and elevates /depresses scapula
Anatomical position humerus to scapula?
The Humerus is distal to the scapula.
Which does not belong ischium scapula ilium pubis?
Scapula, or none
Where is the spine of the scapula located?
It is the prominent ridge of bone going across the upper part of the scapula in the posterior part of the scapula
Which muscle moves the scapula forward?
Serratus Anterior, moves scapula forward.
What muscle moves the scapulae forward and rotate scapula upward?
The Serratus Anterior moves the scapula forward and rotates it upward.
What is the action of the serratus anterior?
Abducts scapula (moves scapula away from spinal column)
What is the action of the serratus anterior muscle?
Abducts scapula (moves scapula away from spinal column)
Moves the scapula forward and downward?
Pectoralis Minor
What does the trapezius move?
Scapula, and the Lateral 3rd of the Clavicle.
What structure does the scapula move upon?
The scapula moves against the posterior aspect of the rib cage. There is also articulation of the scapula with the humerous at the glenoid fosa and with the clavical at the acromion.
What is the movement of the scapula when the humerus abducts?
Moves shoulder away
Does the scapula have any movement?
Yes it has. The Scapula and humerus forms the shoulder joint and they both coordinate to give overhead abduction, that is abduction above 90 degrees. for every 30 degree movement of the arm or the humerus the scapula moves by 10 degrees. We cannot have overhead abduction is our scapula is stabilized or does not move.
What connects the bone to the musel?
tendon
