pisiform
which carpal is a sesamoid bone?
pisiform
floats over triquetral in tendon of flexor carpi ulnaris

trapezium
trapezoid
capitate
hamate
what are the bony landmarks significant with the carpals?
tubercle of the scaphoid
hook of hamate
the phalanges are divided into what sections?
proximal
middle
distal
name the four landmarks of the manubrium
sternal notch
clavicular & costal facets
sternal angle
sternal angle
marks the locations of the 2nd ribs on the manubrium
sternbrae
body of the sternum, fused together in adults
what is the distal end of the sternum referred to as?
xiphoid process
what is the shape of the clavicle
sigmoid — gentle S shape
what are the 2 ligaments associated with the clavicle?
costo—clavicular
coraco—-clavicular
T/F: the coracoclavicular ligament is made up of 2 small ligaments?
true
conoid & trapezoid

deltoid, pectoralis major, trapezius, sternocleidomastoid, subclavius
the scapula spans across….
ribs 2 - 7
the Spinoglenoid notch is located on what bone? describe it’s location
scapula
under the spine, on the acromion process end
the medial border of the scapula: angle type?
vertical line

acromion process
crest is another word for
ridge
describe the difference between the anatomical and surgical neck of the humerus
anatomical neck is superior to the surgical and located on top of the greater tubercle
surgical neck is just inferior to the head
