for the stabilization of the upper limb with the axial skeleton
|
|
What is the purpose of the lower limb?
|
stability
|
|
What is the purpose of the upper limb?
|
Mobility and to place the hand in a position of function
|
|
What is the sternoclavicular joint? what is it supported by? what type of joint?
|
connects the sternum to the clavicle articulation with upper limb with axial. it is a synovial joint supported by strong sternoclavicular ligaments
|
|
What is the purpose of the clavicle
|
It acts as a strut and holds the upper limb out from the body.
|
|
What are the ligaments of the pectoral girdle?
|
acromioclavicular ligament, coracoclavicular ligament, coracoacromial ligament
|
|
What is the only joint in the pectoral girdle?
|
the sternoclavicular joint
|
|
What makes up the pectoral girdle?
|
the clavicle and scapula
|
|
What does the acromioclavicular ligament connect?
|
the acromium to the clavicle
|
|
the coracoclavicular ligament connects
|
clavical to the scapula
|
|
the coracoacromial ligament connects what?
|
acromion to the coracoid process
|
|
Where is the coracoid process and the acrominum?
|
in the scapula
|
|
What is the purpose of the coracoacromial ligament?
|
to make a roof for the shoulder joint. no movement because connects the same bone
|
|
What is the joint in the shoulder joint?
|
the glenohumeral joint
|
|
What is the glenohumeral joint connect?
|
gleno fossa of scapula to top of humerus
|
|
What type of joint is the glenohumeral joint?
|
a synovial ball and socket
|
|
What helps strengthen the shoulder joint?
|
the glenoid labrum and coracchumeral ligament (connects the coracoid process to the humerus)
|
|
What is the purpose of the glenoid labrum?
|
to deepen the joint by surrounding the glenoid fossa -- makes it harder for the ball to come out of the socket
|
|

the stability of the shoulder joint and contributes to movement
|
|

|
a true hinge joint
|
|
What do all hinge joints have?
|
collateral ligaments and only 1 axis of movement
|
|
What does the medial collateral ligament connect?
|
the ulna to the humerus
|
|
What does the lateral collateral ligament connect?
|
the radius to the humerus
|
|
what does the annular ligament allow and what does it connect?
|
allows supination and pronation
and it surround the radius and connects to the ulna |
|
