pectoral girdle
-Attach upper limb to axial skeleton
-clavicle(collarbone) and scapula(shoulder blade)

clavicle

Scapula

glenoid cavity
socket in scapular that receives head of humerus

spine of scapula

acromion process
articulates with the clavicle

left vs. right scapula
The coracoid process (hook-shaped and on the transverse plane) is on the anterior side. Also look at the glenoid fossa (socket) to see where the humerus goes in.
***whatever side the glenoid cavity is on

Humerus

head of humerus

olecranon fossa

greater tubercle

deltoid tuberosity

capitulum

trochlea

left vs. right humerus
olecranon fossa is posterior, head points medially

ulna
PU → pinky ulna *looks like a wrench

trochlear notch

olecranon process

radius

head of radius
articulates with capitulum of humerus and radial notch of ulna

humerus, pinky, and ulna

carpal bones

metacarpal bones

phalanges bones

pelvic girdle
hip bones

right vs. left pelvic bone
-acetabulum is lateral
-iliac crest is posterior
-greater sciatic notch is posterior
Hold like a telephone and speak into "obtrurator"

acetabulum
hip socket

ilium

ischium

pubic bone

obturator foramen
opening in hip bone

Femur

left vs. right femur
head is medial, bumpy part at the back
Head : FITS INTO THE ROUND SOCKET OF THE PELVIC BONE
head Points to left: left femur
head Points to right: right femur
