Which end of the clavicle has a rounded hammerlike head?
Radial
Coxal
Acromial
Sternal
Solution
The answer is the last one (D): Sternal.
Explanation for each option:
Radial: This term refers to the radius, one of the bones in the forearm, and is not related to the clavicle. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Coxal: This term refers to the hip bone, which is not related to the clavicle. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Acromial: This end of the clavicle is the lateral end that connects to the acromion of the scapula. It is not the end with a rounded hammerlike head. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Sternal: This is the medial end of the clavicle that connects to the sternum. It has a rounded, hammerlike head, making this the correct answer.
