You usually fall with out stretched hand. There are many types of fractures in that case including the fracture of the clavicle. The wave of shock pass along the fore arm and arm bones. It falls on the scapula. Scapula has got no bony attachment to the chest wall. So shock wave pass to the sternum via clavicle. At times the clavicle get fractured.
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.
It seems there might be a typo in your question. If you meant to ask about the sternoclavicular joint, it refers to the joint between the sternum (breastbone) and the clavicle (collarbone). This joint allows for movements of the shoulder and arms.
The pectoral girdle supports and protects the shoulder joints and helps in the movement of the arms. It consists of the clavicle and scapula bones, providing attachment points for muscles that move the arms and shoulders. The pectoral girdle also helps protect the underlying structures like blood vessels and nerves.
The subclavian region is located in the upper chest area, just below the clavicle (collarbone). It is near the shoulder and extends towards the armpit. The subclavian region contains important blood vessels and nerves that supply the upper extremities.
The subclavian is a major artery in the body that supplies blood to the arms, upper chest, and brain. It branches off the aorta and runs under the collarbone on both sides of the body. Injuries or blockages to the subclavian artery can lead to serious complications.
If you fall and hit the ground with your hands outstretched, the impact travels up your arms and into your clavicle. The force exerted on the clavicle from the impact can cause it to fracture due to the pressure and stress placed on the bone.
The shock of hitting the ground with the hands travels up the arms, and hits the clavicle with enough force and the angle to fracture it. The impact usually damages something else before it gets that far, but the bones must have been aligned just so for the shock to travel up without damaging anything else on the way up.

Forearm Fracture are the most common fracture in children. This is because you use your arms to do most sports and activities. when you fall you use your arms to catch yourself when you fall.
shoulder blades, or the scapulae act as a connection between the arms and axial skeleton. along with the clavicle, the scapulae form the pectoral girdle. with out them, your arms would not be attached to the rest of ur body.

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.**
Yes, there is a difference between hitting and tackling in American football. Hitting generally refers to a player making contact with an opponent without necessarily bringing them to the ground, often to disrupt a play. Tackling, on the other hand, involves a player wrapping their arms around an opponent to bring them to the ground, which is a fundamental defensive skill aimed at stopping the ball carrier. Both techniques are crucial, but tackling is more focused on stopping the play effectively.

Because they do not understand about hitting people and that waving their arms about will hurt somebody. They wave their arms as a sign of excitement or frustration or when they want something. It is a way of finding out about themselves and understanding what their arms do
A shot is simply caused by hitting the ground before you hit the ball, this can happen if you do not have the bottom of the arc of your swing in the correct position, or you drop your arms too early, and if you drop your right leg (for right handers) too soon.
