clavicle: acromial end
articulates with the scapula
clavicle: sternal end
attaches to the sternum
clavicle: conoid tubercle
ligament attachment site on the inferior surface
clavicle: costal tuberosity
located on the inferior side of the clavicle, distal to the sternal facet
clavicle: sternal facet
the flat portion of the sternal end of the clavicle that articulates with the sternum
scapula: spine
extends into the acromion; large projection on the posterior aspect connecting the medial border to the acromion
scapula: acromion
connects with the clavicle; at the end of the spine, an ovular section of bone
scapula: coracoid process
muscle attachment site; located between the suprascapular notch and the acromion
scapula: glenoid cavity
socket for the humerus; located on the anterior aspect of the scapula inferior to the coracoid process
scapula: suprascapular notch
passageway for nerves; located between the superior angle and the coracoid process
scapula: superio, lateral and medial borders
the angles of the triangle
scapula: supraspinous fossa
located between the superior angle and the spine
scapula: superior angle
the superior corner of the scapula, closest to the top
scapula: inferior angle
located at the very bottom of the scapula
humerus: head
fits into the glenoid cavity of the scapula
humerus: greater tubercle
superior to the lesser tubercle; located next to the head
humerus: lesser tubercle
inferior to the greater tubercle; on the same end of the bone as the head
humerus: capitulum (lateral)
articulates with the radius; on the opposite end as the head; rounded projection on the left of the anterior surface
humerus: trochlea (medial)
articulates with the trochlear notch of the ulna; on the opposite end as the head; located laterally to the capitulum; a rectangular process
humerus: radial fossa (lateral)
for the head of the radius during flexion; indented surface superior to the capitulum and next to the coronoid fossa
humerus: coronoid fossa
for ulna process during flexion; located next to the radial fossa; superior to the trochlea
