Vegetation acts as an interface between the atmosphere and the soil. It increases the permeability of the soil to rainwater, thus decreasing runoff. It shelters the soil from winds, which results in decreased wind erosion, as well as advantageous changes in microclimate.
The shoulder is a ball-and-socket type of joint and is anatomically referred to as the gleno-humeral joint, describing the two bony structures involved. The socket is the glenoid cavity, a cup-shaped piece of bone that juts out from a corner of the shoulder blade (scapula).
Where is the glenoid cavity held, where does it articulate and what does it form? Held in the scapular head, articulates with the humerus and forms the shoulder joint (glenohumeral joint) What are the two processes of the glenoid cavity and how are they distinguishable?
