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
What else can I help you with?
Moves the scapula forward and downward?
The primary muscle responsible for moving the scapula forward and downward is the serratus anterior. This muscle originates along the upper eight or nine ribs and inserts along the inner border of the scapula. Contraction of the serratus anterior pulls the scapula forward and downward along the ribcage.
IS upward rotation of the scapula the same as lateral rotation?
No, upward rotation of the scapula refers to movement where the scapula moves upward and rotates in an upward direction around the axis. Lateral rotation, on the other hand, is the rotation of a bone around its longitudinal axis. These are two different types of movements.
Which does not belong ischium scapula ilium pubis?
Scapula does not belong. The ischium, ilium, and pubis are bones of the pelvis, while the scapula is a bone of the shoulder girdle.
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
Is tipping of scapula same as winging of scapula?
No. Winging Posterior movement of the medial border of the scapula, Rotation about a vertical axis. Tipping Posterior movement of the inferior angle of the scapula, Rotation about a transverse axis
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)
What does the trapezius move?
Scapula, and the Lateral 3rd of the Clavicle.
What is the movement of the scapula when the humerus abducts?
Moves shoulder away
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.
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?
