What is the trochlear notch that articulates with the humerus?
The trochlear notch is a depression on the proximal end of the ulna bone that articulates with the trochlea of the humerus. This forms the hinge joint of the elbow, allowing for flexion and extension of the forearm.
Why does superior oblique tendon pass through the trochlea?
The superior oblique muscle passes through the trochlea to change the direction of its pull, allowing it to have a more efficient and effective action on the eye. This unique anatomical arrangement helps the eye move smoothly and coordinate its movements for binocular vision.
What articulates with the proximal tibia?
the trochlea of the talus.
What type of joint is humeroulnar?
The humeroulnar joint is a hinge joint, allowing for flexion and extension movements of the elbow. It is formed by the articulation between the trochlea of the humerus and the trochlear notch of the ulna.
What is the cylindrical bone end fits into the trough shape of another bone called?
Hinge joints include a cylindrical bone end that fits into a groove, called a trochlea, on the other bone. One example is your elbow.
Is the coronoid fossa on the lateral and posterior side of the humerus?
No, the coronoid fossa is on the lateral and anterior aspect of the humerus. It receives the coronoid process of the ulna during flexion of the elbow.
What is the Trochlea of the superior oblique muscle of the eye?
The Trochlea Nerve (cranial nerve 4) controls the superior oblique muscle of the eye. It turns the eye laterally and downwards.
What muscle passes through the trochlea?
superior oblique muslce
What is the name of the depression where the ulna meets the humerus anteriorly?
Trochlea

Name the depression on the ulna into which the humerus inserts?
The depression on the ulna into which the humerus inserts is called the trochlear notch. This forms the hinge joint known as the elbow joint.
What does the trochlea articulate with?
olecranon
Do you need the trochlea to live?
i dont do you
What is the distal medial process of the humerus?
The trochlea is the medial process of the humerus. The humerus articulates with the ulna at the trochlea.
What is the plural form of trochlea?
The plural form of trochlea is trochleae. If a singular word ends in an "a" then add an "e" at the end to make it plural.
Is the medial epicondyle adjacent to trochlea?
The medial epicondyle (on the humerus) is located closet to the body when in the anatomical position and the trochlea (on the humerus) is located slightly laterally and inferior to the medial epicondyle.
