Exercise 11: The Appendicular Skeleton

What are the pectoral and pelvic girdles? When identifying bones of the appendicular skeleton, be sure to specify right or left!!!
Be able to identify the following bones and their markings (given in parentheses).
Pectoral or shoulder girdle:
    Clavicle (sternal end, acromial end, conoid tubercle) and scapula (acromion process, coracoid process, suprascapular notch; superior, inferior and lateral angles; superior, medial and lateral borders; spine; subscapular fossa, supraspinous fossa; infraspinous fossa; glenoid cavity).
Arm:
    Humerus (head, anatomical neck, surgical neck, greater tubercle, lesser tubercle, intertubercular sulcus, deltoid tuberosity, radial groove, trochlea, capitulum, medial epicondyle, lateral epicondyle, coronoid fossa, olecranon fossa, radial fossa), radius (head, radial tuberosity, ulnar notch, styloid process), ulna (coronoid process, olecranon process, trochlear notch, head, styloid process), carpal bones (scaphoid, lunate, triquetral, pisiform, trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate), metacarpals(1 to 5), phalanges (proximal, medial, distal).
Pelvic girdle:
    Ossa (os) coxae: ilium (sacroiliac joint, iliac crest, anterior superior iliac spine, posterior superior iliac spine, anterior inferior iliac spine, posterior inferior iliac spine, iliac fossa, arcuate line); ischium (ischial tuberosity, ischial spine, lesser and greater sciatic notches ), pubis (rami, pubic crest, pubic symphysis), obturator foramen, acetabulum, false pelvis, true pelvis, pelvic inlet or pelvic brim, pelvic outlet. Compare male and female pelves.
Leg:
    Femur (head, fovea capitis, neck, greater and lesser trochanters, intertrochaneric line, intertrochanteric crest, linea aspera, gluteal tuberosity, lateral and medial condyles, lateral and medial epicondyles, intercondylar fossa, adductor tubercle),patella, tibia (medial and lateral condyles, intercondylar eminence, tibial tuberosity, medial malleolus, anterior border), fibula (head, lateral malleolus), tarsals (calcaneus, talus, navicular, cuboid, and; lateral, intermediate and medial cuneiforms), metatarsals (1 to 5), phalanges (proximal, medial, distal).
