Appendicular Skeleton Assignment

Appendicular Skeleton Assignment

Q Below you will find two concept maps. A concept map is a diagram that helps us to build relationships, in this case, between structures of the human body. There are two concept maps, one for the pectoral girdle and upper limb, and a second for the pelvic girdle and the lower limb. For each number on the concept map, provide the bone that is found in that location within the limb. Use the anatomical direction "compass" as a guide. For each letter on the concept map, provide the articulation that is formed at that location. For each articulation: What structural features of the bones involved articulate, or come into contact? Be specific. Provide all of the structures that stabilize that articulation. The appendicular skeleton allows the human body to be mobile and dexterous. There are 63 total bones in the appendicular skeleton, many of which form complex articulations.
