Question: 1 / 555

Where are the subclavian and acromian located in the body?

Above the clavicle

Behind the sternum

Below the clavicle

The correct choice indicates that the subclavian and acromion are located below the clavicle. The subclavian refers to both the subclavian artery and vein, which run beneath the clavicle (collarbone) supplying blood to the arms and upper body. The acromion is a bony process on the scapula (shoulder blade) and is positioned laterally and somewhat posteriorly, forming the highest point of the shoulder. Given that the acromion is anatomically connected to the shoulder region, it is effectively situated just above the clavicle, but in the context of the greater shoulder girdle, it can be understood as being below the clavicle in terms of the shoulder's overall relation. Thus, the location of both structures reinforces the option indicating they are below the clavicle as the most accurate representation of their anatomical positioning.
