5 multiple choice 1 point which motion of your scapula must happen so the head of the humerus does not impinge in the coracoacromial arch? downward rotation upward rotation depression retraction clear my selection
When the scapula undergoes upward rotation, it increases the space between the head of the humerus and the coracoacromial arch. Downward rotation would decrease this space. Depression (movement of scapula downward) and retraction (movement of scapula towards the spine) do not primarily address the issue of creating space to prevent impingement in the coracoacromial arch.
