  • Pectoralis Major & Serratus Anterior
  • Pectoralis Major & anterior fibres of Deltoid
  • Pectoralis Major & posterior fibres of Deltoid

8. What separates the two articulating surfaces at the sternoclavicular joint?

  • A tendon
  • Lamellae
  • A fibrocartilaginous disk
  • Bursae

10. In relation to the shoulder and hip joints, what is the labrum?

  • A tendon that attaches over the joint and acts to hold it in place
  • A section of synovial membrane that acts over the major pressure point to reduce friction
  • A section of the epiphyseal growth plate that allows the continous growth of the shoulder and hip joint
  • A fibrocartilaginous ring that attaches and acts around the joint fossa to deepen it
