Identify the bone from its common name

Using the Bone Identification knowledge point
The question describes a bone that is thin and flat, commonly referred to as the "shoulder blade." The anatomical term for the shoulder blade is the scapula.

Classify the bone shape

Using the Bone Classification knowledge point
The scapula is structurally classified as a flat bone due to its thin, flattened, and typically curved shape, which provides protection and broad surfaces for muscle attachment.

Evaluate the incorrect options

• ulna: A long bone of the medial forearm.
• clavicle: An S-shaped long bone commonly known as the collarbone.
• humerus: A long bone of the upper arm.
• tibia: A large long bone of the lower leg (shinbone).
