What is the soulder bone used for?

The shoulder bone, or scapula, plays a crucial role in the structure and function of the shoulder joint. It provides attachment points for muscles that facilitate arm movement and stability, allowing for a wide range of motion. Additionally, the scapula connects the humerus (upper arm bone) to the clavicle (collarbone), contributing to the overall mobility of the upper limb. Its unique shape and position also help protect underlying structures, such as nerves and blood vessels.
