There are two areas on the scapula where the biceps attaches: the first is the coracoid process, the second is the glenoid tubercle. Not sure there is a more general single term that includes both of these areas.you are welcome! :)

What is the proximal attachment of the infraspinatus?

The proximal attachment of the infraspinatus muscle is primarily located on the infraspinous fossa of the scapula. It originates from the posterior surface of the scapula, below the spine of the scapula, and spans laterally to attach to the greater tubercle of the humerus. This positioning allows it to play a crucial role in shoulder stabilization and external rotation of the arm.


What is another name for the shoulder blade and what two bones attach to it?

The shoulder blade is called the scapula. The bones that articulate with it are the clavicle (collar bone) and the humerus (upper arm bone).


A protein on the surface of HIV can attach to what proteins on the surface of healthy human cells?

HIV's surface protein, gp120, can attach to CD4 receptors on healthy human cells. This interaction allows HIV to enter and infect the cell by binding to the CCR5 or CXCR4 co-receptors on the cell surface.


If a barnacle fell off a whale what would happen to it?

Depends greatly on where it lands. If it goes outside of its normal range of depth, it could die due to being crushed. And Barnacles don't normally live on whales, they grow on items that are very near the surface and may be in the tidal range. You find them on ships, rocks and piers.

Yes, the scapula attaches to the axial skeleton indirectly through the clavicle. The clavicle is the bone that connects the scapula to the sternum, which is part of the axial skeleton.

What are facts about the scapula?

Scapula The Scapula is a Latin word meaning "Blade".so instead of saying the "shoulder scapula" you could say "shoulder blade." The scapula is the second shoulder bone in the 206 bones in the human body. The scapula is a wider flat bone at the back of the shoulder. The Scapula is also held in place by the end of the clavicle that is not connected to that thorax. The triceps muscle Starts on the scapula and runs down the back of the upper arm to the lower end of the humerous bone, which is the third bone in the shoulder. That muscle allows the arm to move back and forth. Two of the most important shoulder tendons are the rhomboid major and the rhomboid minor, they both attach to the scapula to help the shoulder bone move in or out. Another major tendon in the human body is the levator scapulae which does the same thing except…it helps raise and lower the scapula and the muscle around the scapula. There is also the rotary cuff which is a group of four muscles that run from the scapula to the humerous. The main job of that is to keep the shoulder girdle stable. If that girdle breaks or tears you will not be able to move your arm freely most of the time it will heal w/ lots of rest but in a much milder case you may need surgery. Another incident containing the ligaments is called shoulder separation, shoulder separation is the stretching or tearing of the ligaments at the end of the clavicle which would make it no longer attach to the scapula.
