(Illustrations Collection)
Background Info
The cranium (skull) is the skeletal structure of the head that supports the face anThe scapula bone joins with the clavicle to form the shoulder (pectoral) girdle, which connects the humerus (upper arm bone) with the thorax. The scapula is a flattened bone whose name is derived from scapulae, the Latin word for the “shoulder blades”. This term was likely modified from the Greek verb skaptein, meaning to dig, because the bone’s flattened shape resembles a trowel or small shovel.
