1. collarbone

   The clavicle, or collarbone, is a slender, S-shaped long bone approximately 6 inches (15 cm) long that serves as a strut between the shoulder blade and the sternum (breastbone). There are two clavicles, one on the left and one on the right. The clavicle is the only long bone in the body that lies horizontally. Together with the shoulder blade, it makes up the shoulder girdle. It is a palpable bone and, in people who have less fat in this region, the location of the bone is clearly visible. It receives its name from the Latin clavicula ("little key"), because the bone rotates along its axis like a key when the shoulder is abducted. The clavicle is the most commonly fractured bone. It can easily be fractured by impacts to the shoulder from the force of falling on outstretched arms or by a direct hit.

1. collarbone

   The collarbone, also known as the clavicle, is a curved bone that connects the breastbone (or sternum) to the shoulder blade (or scapula). It is found in pairs, with one on each side of the front, upper part of the chest. The collarbone provides support for the shoulder and arm, enabling various movements and functioning as a strut that holds out the arm away from the body. It is often easily seen under the skin, due to its location just beneath the skin's surface.
