in vertebrate anatomy, a joint in which the rounded surface of a bone moves within a depression on another bone, allowing greater freedom of movement than any other kind of joint.

large, superficial muscle at the back of the neck and the upper part of the thorax, or chest.

long bone of the upper limb or forelimb of land vertebrates that forms the shoulder joint above, where it articulates with a lateral depression of the shoulder blade .

large, triangular muscle that covers the shoulder and serves mainly to raise the arm laterally.

tissue that attaches a muscle to other body parts, usually bones

any of the muscles of the anterolateral walls of the abdominal cavity, composed of three flat muscular sheets, from without inward:

in humans, hinge-type, freely moving synovial joint between the foot and leg
