Clavicle Bone Quiz

The clavicle bone, also known as the collarbone, is shaped like an S and is the only long bone in the body that is positioned horizontally.

The clavicle bone, unlike other long bones, is positioned horizontally.

Long bones, as their name suggests, are longer than they are wide and generally have two distinct ends.

Long bones are typically cylindrical and elongated in shape.

The clavicle is the only long bone that is oriented transversely, meaning it runs across the body rather than vertically.

All long bones have two ends, known as epiphyses. These ends are typically wider than the shaft, or diaphysis, of the bone.
