Humerus

and the two joints primarily involved are the elbow and shoulder. The elbow is a hinge joint formed by the humerus and ulna. The shoulder is a ball and socket joint formed between the humerus and the scapula. The joints that are involved in a throw are the shoulder and the elbow. The bones in the shoulder are the humerus and the scapula. The bones that are used in the elbow are the humerus and the ulna. In the shoulder the action is horizontal hyperextension and in the elbow it is extension. The…

the upper extremity in space. The shoulder girdle also provides power and support for the upper extremity throughout and at the extremes of the range of motion. (19) The shoulder girdle includes three bones (scapula, clavicle, and proximal humerus), three joints (glenohumeral, acromioclavicular and sternoclavicular), an additional articulation (scapulothoracic) and some 17 musculotendinous units. These individual elements function in a synchronous and interdependent manner to…

of motion because the structures of the joint have been pulled to closely together. When the rotator cuff muscles become chronically tight the head of the humerus will be pulled up into the shoulder socket compressing the bursa and supra spinatus tendon. As a result of the narrowing of the space between the acromion and the head of the humerus the tendons…

On the southwest corner of 6th and Mt. Rushmore, there is a sign that says, "Welcome to Little Italy." The building next to the sign is a quadplex that shares many small businesses. This is a "mom and pop shop" area of town. Just to the north of all these businesses is an area where most of the drug addict and alcoholic population spend their time. This was a crime infested area with king pins in all sorts of drug categories. Our dispatcher received a call on. October 2nd, 2016 about a finding…

Kaylina “Wally” Nies ANT4525L - Killgrove December 3, 2014 Skeletal Report Many of the medical skeletons that are used for analysis in ANT4525L: Human Osteology come from the Middle East region. They range in how old the bodies were at death to how old they have been deceased and skeletonized. Upon first displaying medical skeleton number four in anatomical order, it was clear that this skeleton was in a better condition than the other skeletons that were assigned. The body had a whiter tint to…

Anatomy & Physiology Anatomy is the study of the structure and relationship between body parts. Physiology is the study of the function of body parts and the body as a whole. Aims and Objectives  The composition of bone  The structure of a long bone  Classifying the types of joint found in the body  Description of synovial joint  How joint operates  How two different systems communicate for normal functioning of a joint  Description of a disease involving the musculoskeletal system …

The brachialis originates from the distal anterior half of the humerus, and inserts onto the coronoid process of the ulna/ulnar tuberosity (Starkey, et al.,…
