Question

during a soccer game, john falls with his right arm outstretched. when he arrives at the er, the attending physician notices that johns upper limb is hanging in a more medial position. what bone has been fractured? answer humerus sternum calvicle i dont know yet

Explanation:

The humerus is the bone of the upper - arm. A fractured humerus can cause the upper limb to hang in an abnormal position. The sternum is in the chest, not part of the upper - limb. The correct term is clavicle (not 'calvicle'), which is a different bone of the shoulder girdle and not typically associated with this specific presentation of a hanging upper - limb in this context.

Answer:

A. Humerus
