Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The scapula bone is a triangular, large, and flat bone. It is also called the shoulder blade. Its prominent ridge is called a spine. It acts as a connection between the bone of the upper arm (humerus) and the collarbone (clavicle). Humerus refers to the long bone present in the upper arm of the body. It is located between the shoulder joint and the elbow. These structures are supported by several muscles that help in the movement of the arm.
