What else can I help you with?
Which features is located at near the proximal end of humerus?
The greater tubercle, lesser tubercle, and intertubercular sulcus are located near the proximal end of the humerus.
Which bone contains the greater and lesser tubercles and the trochlea and capitulum?
The humerus contains both the greater and lesser tubercles, as well as the trochlea and capitulum. The greater tubercle is located laterally, while the lesser tubercle is found anteriorly on the proximal end of the humerus. The trochlea and capitulum are located at the distal end of the humerus, forming part of the elbow joint.
What muscle inserts on the greater tubercle of humerus?
supraspinatus
What is the name of the insertion of the infraspinatus?
greater tubercle of the humerous
What is the process on the humerus located near the head that establishes the contour of the shoulder called?
The process on the humerus near the head that establishes the contour of the shoulder is called the greater tubercle. It is an important landmark for various shoulder muscles and ligaments that attach around this area, contributing to shoulder stability and movement.
What muscle has an attachment on the superior facet of greater tubercle of humerus?
The supraspinatus muscle has an attachment on the superior facet of the greater tubercle of the humerus. It plays a key role in initiating shoulder abduction and stabilizing the shoulder joint.
A muscle that inserts on the greater tubercle of the humerus is most likely involved in what?
lateral rotation
Large process near head of humerus?
The large process near the head of the humerus is likely referring to the greater tubercle. It is a bony projection that provides attachment sites for muscles of the rotator cuff. Injuries or inflammation to this area can result in pain and limited shoulder movement.
What bone do the muscles of the rotator cuff originate?
The rotator cuff muscles are referred to occasionally as the SITS muscles. The Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres minor and the subscapularis. The Supras. originates on the scapula and inserts on the humerus. The Infras. originates on the scapula and inserts on the humerus(greater tubercle. The Teres minor originates on the scapula and inserts on the humerus. The Subscapularis originates on the scapula and inserts on the humerus(lesser tubercle). The function of this muscle group is to stabilize the shoulder joint. Hope this helps.
What is a tubercle?
track left by scabes.
What is small rounded projection?
tubercle
Where does subscapularis insert?
the lesser tubercle of the humerus
