Question

question 45 (mandatory) (2 points)
scapular rotation occurs in/around which of the following?
a) transverse plane/frontal axis
b) frontal plane/sagittal axis
c) transverse plane/vertical axis
d) sagittal plane/frontal axis

Explanation:

Scapular rotation (like upward/downward rotation) occurs in the frontal plane and around the sagittal axis. Let's analyze each option:

• Option a: Transverse plane/Frontal axis is incorrect for scapular rotation.
• Option b: Frontal plane (movement in this plane) and sagittal axis (rotation around this axis) matches scapular rotation mechanics.
• Option c: Transverse plane/Vertical axis is not related to scapular rotation.
• Option d: Sagittal plane/Frontal axis is incorrect as scapular rotation is in frontal plane.

Answer:

b) Frontal plane/Sagittal axis
