Which 3 out of the 9 labels is incorrect in the anatomical structure of the shoulder joint?

 
### Anatomy of the Shoulder Muscles

The image provides both an anterior and posterior view of the shoulder musculature. It highlights key structures and muscles involved in shoulder movement and stability. 

#### (a) Anterior View:

1. **Clavicle**: The collarbone, which connects the arm to the body.
2. **Acromion**: The bony prominence on the top of the shoulder blade.
3. **Rotator Cuff**: A group of muscles and tendons stabilizing the shoulder joint.
4. **Tendon of Supraspinatus Muscle**: Connects the supraspinatus muscle to the shoulder.
5. **Glenoid Cavity**: The socket in the shoulder blade that holds the head of the humerus.
6. **Coracoid Process**: A small hook-like structure on the shoulder blade.
7. **Humerus**: The long bone in the upper arm.

#### (b) Posterior View:

1. **Clavicle**: Shown as a structure connecting the shoulder to the chest.
2. **Acromion**: Visible as part of the scapula surrounding the shoulder joint.
3. **Subacromial Bursa**: A fluid-filled sac reducing friction in the shoulder.
4. **Tendon of Supraspinatus Muscle**: Highlighted as part of the rotator cuff.
5. **Tendon of Infraspinatus Muscle**: Attaches the infraspinatus muscle to the humerus.
6. **Tendon of Teres Minor Muscle**: Connects the teres minor muscle to the shoulder.
7. **Scapula**: The shoulder blade providing attachments for various muscles.
8. **Subscapularis Muscle**: Part of the rotator cuff on the anterior surface of the scapula.

These diagrams are essential for understanding shoulder anatomy, focusing on the complex interplay of bones, muscles, and tendons that allow for a wide range of motion.
