To write:
The name of the muscle that inserts on the scapula and plays a significant role in pushing a stalled car.
Introduction:
Muscles acting upon the pectoral girdle extend from the axial skeleton to the clavicle and scapula. The scapula simply has a loose attachment to the thoracic cage. This attachment is enough to permit good movements like rotation, elevation, depression, retraction, and protraction.
(b)
To write:
The name of the muscle that inserts on the scapula and plays a significant role in paddling a canoe.
Introduction:
Nine muscles cross the shoulder joint and insert into the humerus. Among these, seven are known as scapular muscles as they originate from the scapula. While rest two are called axial muscles as they are found originating from the axial skeleton.
(c)
To write:
The name of the muscle that inserts on the scapula and plays a significant role in squaring the shoulders in military attention.
Introduction:
The shoulder muscles are the muscles of the pectoral girdle. They can be found extending from the axial skeleton to the clavicle and scapula. The scapula has a loos attachment to the thoracic cage and it facilitates movements like rotation, depression, and so on.
(d)
To write:
The name of the muscle that inserts on the scapula and plays a significant role in lifting the shoulder to carry a heavy box on it.
Introduction:
Rotation is the movement wherein the shoulder is raised and lowered. Elevation and depression are movements wherein the shoulders are shrugged and lowered. Protraction and retraction involve the movement of the shoulders back and forth.
(e)
To write:
The name of the muscle that inserts on the scapula and plays a significant role in lowering the shoulder to lift a suitcase.
Introduction:
There are many muscles attached to the scapula to facilitate various movements like retraction and protraction, elevation and depression, and rotation. These muscles’ movements are moderated by the clavicle that braces the shoulder.
