The upper limb plays a crucial role in weight transmission during various activities, such as lifting and carrying objects. The shoulder joint, along with the muscles of the arm, enables the transfer of forces from the torso to the hands, facilitating stability and control. Additionally, the upper limb assists in balancing the body during movements, allowing for efficient weight distribution and reducing strain on the lower limbs. Overall, the coordinated action of the upper limb enhances functional mobility and supports the body's overall mechanics during weight-bearing tasks.
