Document Summary

Promotes upper limb mobility by: because the scapula is not directly attach dto tot he axial skeleton, it movs freely. Shallow cavity of shoulder joint permits a wide range of movemtn of upper limbs. Spine of the scapula : ridge of boen on the posterior aspect of the scapula. Is continuous with a larger posterior process called the acromion. The acromion articulates with the acromial end of the clavicle. The coracoids process: found on the anterior side.
