The medial end of the clavicle forms the sternoclavicular joint. The lateral end of the clavicle forms the acromioclavicular joint.
Apparently a Long Bone. I could be wrong That is incorrect. Long bones are those you find in the legs and arms. The clavicle is a flat bone. ** This answer is incorrect, the actual bone is characterized as a irregular bone.**
false. they are in the appendicular skeleton
There is the sternoclavicular-joint and the carpalmetacarpal-joint of the thumb. So in total: 4
Clavicle and ScapulaClavicle and scapula.Articulated bones of the pectoral (shoulder) girdle.The paired pectoral, or shoulder, girdles each consist of two bones- the anterior clavicle and the posterior scapula.
There are actually only two. The glenohumeral (or scapulohumeral) which is the joint between the humerus and the glenoid cavity of the scapula, and the acromioclavicular, which is the joint between the clavicle and the acromion of the scapula. I guess you could also include the sternoclavicular, which is the joint between the sternum and the clavicle, but that is not technically part of the shoulder girdle.
the joints which allow abduction of the shoulder are the glenohumeral joint which is formed between the humerus and the glenoid fossa, the sternoclavicular joint which is formed between the upper portion of the sternum and the clavicle and also the acromioclavicular joint which is formed between the acromion process and the clavicle all of these joints work together with the muscles which produce shoulder abduction to create this movement.

The largest joints in the body are the ball-and-socket joints of the shoulder (humerus and clavicle) and the hip (pelvis and femur).
limited by the position of the clavicle joint at the sternoclavicular joint

The two joints are the tibiofemoral and the patellofemoral joints. The tibiofemoral joint is formed by the distal end of the femur particularly the lateral and medial femoral condyles, and the proximal end of the tibia particularly the lateral and medial tibial plateaus. Movements available at this joint are flexion & extension, internal & external rotation. The patellofemoral joint is formed by the articulation between the trochlea of the femur and the articular surfaces of the patella. Movements available at this joint are basically gliding movements that accompany tibiofemoral joint movements, namely; superior, inferior, lateral & medial gliding.
Your shoulder blade, collar bone, and arm bone (clavicle, clavicle, and humerus) make up the shoulder and it's joints. The bone on the very outside is the acromion process of the scapula.
This another name for scapula. The clavicle (collar bone) and humerus for joints with it. Together, they form the should joint.

There are joints in the ribs. There are the joints of the sternum, the joints of ribs, and the joints of costal cartilages.
The only joints joining the upper extremities to the axial skeleton are the acromioclavicular joints, a joint between the acromion on the scapula and the clavicle.
Cartilage can be found in : - The lateral edges of your costa (Ribs)- Leg Joints- Hip Joints
