The acromion process is on the scapula.
The acromion process articulates with the clavicle to form the acromioclavicular joint at the top of the shoulder.
The bones that articulate with the clavicle are the manubrium of the sternal end, and the acromion of the scapula.
The lateral end of the clavicle is the one closest to the arm and farthest from the breastbone. It articulates with the acromion process of the scapula.
What people call the tip of the shoulder is the boney prominence that forms the upper part of the shoulder joint. This is a piece of bone that is part of the shoulder blade and called the acromion.
The acromion process of the scapula articulates with the distal end of the clavicle at the acromioclavicular joint. The clavicle provides attachment points for muscles of the arms and chest, such as the deltoid and pectoralis major muscles.
Articular cartilage
The bony landmarks of the clavicle include the acromial end (which articulates with the acromion of the scapula), the sternal end (which articulates with the sternum), and the conoid tubercle and trapezoid line (which serve as attachment sites for ligaments).
The term "acromial" is derived from the Latin word "acromion," which refers to the bony process on the scapula. "Extremity" simply means the outermost or farthest point. So, the "acromial extremity of the clavicle" refers to the end of the clavicle bone that articulates with the acromion process of the scapula.
Yes, horses do have an acromion on their scapula bone. The acromion process, along with the coracoid process, helps to form the shoulder joint and provides attachment points for muscles and ligaments that enable movement in the shoulder.
no, the glenoid cavity is not in the clavicle. it is in the scapula, next to the acromion process and the coracoid process, which provide stability. the glenoid cavity articulates with the head of the humerus as a ball-and-socket joint.
The clavicle. This bone is normally not consideredto be part of the shoulder an instead a part of the thorax, which is also true. The reason it is part of the shoulder is that it joint part of the scapula to form the soked of the glenohumeral joint.
A rounded process that usually articulates with another bone is called a condyle. Condyles are rounded projections at the end of a bone that form joints with other bones, allowing for smooth and stable movement.
