Appendicular Skeleton OBJECTIVE(S) Appendicular Skeleton Identify on a skeleton or diagram the bones of the shoulder and pelvic girdles and their attached limbs.

Appendicular Skeleton The appendicular skeleton is composed of 126 bones of the limbs (appendages) and the pectoral and pelvic girdles, which attach the limbs to the axial skeleton. Bones of the Shoulder Girdle Each shoulder girdle, or pectoral girdle, consists of two bones–a clavicle and a scapula.  The clavicle , or collarbone, is a slender, doubly curved bone. It attaches to the manubrium of the sternum and to the scapula, where it helps to form the shoulder joint. The clavicle acts as a brace to hold the arm away from the top of the thorax and helps prevent shoulder dislocation. The scapulae or shoulder blades, are triangular and are commonly called “wings” because they flare when we move our arms posteriorly. Each scapula has a flattened body and two important processes–the acromion , which is the enlarged end of the spine of the scapula, and the beaklike coracoid process.

Bones of the shoulder girdle

Bones of the Shoulder Girdle (con’t) The acromion connects with the clavicle laterally at the acromioclavicular joint. The coracoid process points over the top of the shoulder and anchors some of the muscles of the arm. Just medial to the coracoid process is the large suprascapular notch. The scapula has three borders–superior, medial (vertebral), and lateral (axillary). It also has three angles–superior, inferior, and lateral. The glenoid cavity, a shallow socket that receives the head of the arm bone, is in the lateral angle. The shoulder girdle is very light and allows the upper limb to have exceptionally free movement. This is due to the following factors: Each shoulder girdle attaches to the axial skeleton at only one point–the sternoclavicular joint. (the clavicle and the sternum) The loose attachment of the scapula allows it to slide back and forth against the thorax as muscles act. The glenoid cavity is shallow, and the shoulder joint is poorly reinforced by ligaments.  The drawback; the shoulder girdle is very easily dislocated.

Bones of the Upper Limbs Thirty separate bones form the skeletal framework of each upper limb. They form the foundations of the arm, forearm, and hand.

Arm The arm is formed by a single bone, the humerus, which is a typical long bone. At its proximal end is a rounded head that fits into the shallow glenoid cavity of the scapula. At the distal end of the humerus is the medial trochlea, which looks somewhat like a spool, and the lateral ball-like capitulum. Both of these processes articulate with bones of the forearm. Forearm Two bones, the radius and the ulna, form the skeleton of the forearm. When the body is in the anatomical position, the radius is the lateral bone; that is, it is on the thumb side of the forearm.  When the hand is rotated so that the palm faces backward, the distal end of the radius crosses over and ends up medial to the ulna. When the upper limb is in the anatomical position, the ulna is the medial bone (on the little-finger side) of the forearm.  Both bones (radius and ulna) have a styloid process.

Hand The skeleton of the hand consists of the carpals, the metacarpals, and the phalanges. The eight carpal bones, arranged in two irregular rows of four bones each, form the part of the hand called the carpus or, more commonly, the wrist. The carpals are bound together by ligaments that restrict movements between them. The palm of the hand consists of the metacarpals. The phalanges  are the bones of the fingers. The metacarpals are numbered 1 to 5 from the thumb side of the hand toward the little finger. When the fist is clenched, the heads of the metacarpals become obvious as the “knuckles.” Each hand contains 14 phalanges. There are three in each finger (proximal, middle, and distal), except in the thumb, which has only two (proximal and distal).

QUIZ What is the single point of attachment of the shoulder girdle to the axial skeleton? The clavicle attaches medially to the sternum. What bone forms the skeleton of the arm? The humerus forms the skeleton of the arm Where are the carpals found, and what type (long, short, irregular, or flat) of bone are they? Carpals are the short bones found in the wrist. Which bones of the upper limb have a styloid process? Radius and ulna.
