2. Why is the clavicle at risk to fracture when a person falls on his or her shoulder? It is a slender, lightweight bone that with-

stands trauma poorly.

3. Why is it generally no problem for the arm to clear the widest dimension of the thoracic cage?

The clavicle acts as a strut to hold the glenoid cavity of the scapula (therefore the arm) laterally away from the narrowest dimension of

the rib cage.

4. What is the total number of phalanges in the hand? 14

5. What is the total number of carpals in the wrist? 8

Name the carpals (medial to lateral) in the proximal row. pisiform, triangular, lunate, scaphoid

In the distal row, they are (medial to lateral) hamate, capitate, trapezoid, trapezium

6. Using items from the list at the right, identify the anatomical landmarks and regions of the scapula.

a. acromion
a b b. coracoid process

c. glenoid cavity
k
d. inferior angle
j
e. infraspinous fossa
c
f. lateral border
i
g. medial border

l h. spine

i. superior angle

h j. superior border

f k. suprascapular notch
e
l. supraspinous fossa

decide whether these bones are right or left bones.

The humerus is a right (posterior view) bone; the radius and ulna are right (anterior view) bones.

Bones of the Pelvic Girdle and Lower Limb

8. Compare the pectoral and pelvic girdles by choosing appropriate descriptive terms from the key.

Key: a. flexibility most important d. insecure axial and limb attachments

b. massive e. secure axial and limb attachments
c. lightweight f. weight-bearing most important

Pectoral: a , c , d Pelvic: b , e , f

9. What organs are protected, at least in part, by the pelvic girdle? Uterus (female), bladder, small intestine, rectum

10. Distinguish between the true pelvis and the false pelvis. The true pelvis is the region inferior to the pelvic brim, which is encircled

by bone. The false pelvis is the area medial to the flaring iliac bones and lies superior to the pelvic brim.

11. Use letters from the key to identify the bone markings on this illustration of an articulated pelvis. Make an educated guess
as to whether the illustration shows a male or female pelvis and provide two reasons for your decision.

Key:

b
a. acetabulum
d j
b. ala
e c. anterior superior iliac spine

d. iliac crest

e. iliac fossa

f. ischial spine

g. pelvic brim
c
g
h. pubic crest
a k i. pubic symphysis
f
j. sacroiliac joint

k. sacrum
h
i

This is a male (female/male) pelvis because:

Acetabula are close together; pubic angle/arch is less than 90°; narrow sacrum, heart-shaped pelvic inlet.

12. Deduce why the pelvic bones of a four-legged animal such as the cat or pig are much less massive than those of the human.

The pelvic girdle does not have to carry the entire weight of the trunk in the quadruped animal.

13. A person instinctively curls over his abdominal area in times of danger. Why? Abdominal area organs receive the least protec-

tion from the skeletal system.

14. For what anatomical reason do many women appear to be slightly knock-kneed? The pelvis is broader and the acetabula and

ilia are more laterally positioned. Thus, the femur runs downward to the knee more obliquely than in the male.

15. What does fallen arches mean? A weakening of the tendons and ligaments supporting the arches of the foot.
