“Hassan’s Story”
A) Which clue would tell Stefan which scapular surface was anterior and which was posterior? What is the name of the shallow, oval socket of the scapula that Stefan placed next to the humerus? -The medial border of the scapula is the longest of the three borders, and extends from the superior to the inferior angle. It is arched, intermediate in thickness between the superior and the axillary borders. This border presents an anterior and a posterior lip, and an intermediate narrow area.
B) Which bone is Stefan referring to as the “collarbone”?.
-the clavicle or collarbone is a long bone that serves as a strut between the scapula and the sternum
C) Which surface markings could Stefan use to distinguish the right humerus from the left?
-Stefan held the bone so that the capitulum and trochlea faced him which indicated it was the anterior
D) Why would Stefan think that an enlarged right deltoid tuberosity might indicate right handedness? -
E) What is the location of the pubic symphysis Stefan refers to in the story?
F) Which adaptation would have taken place in the pubic symphysis of the female skeleton during the later stages of her pregnancy in preparation for the birthing process?
G) What clues could Stefan have used to identify the gender of the pelvis?
H) How would Stefan have distinguished between the right and the left hip bones?
I) Would the bones of each hip bone be fused in the female child’s skeleton?
