(SeeFig. 1.)apex, nthe greatest protrusion of the breast as seen from theside.armpit, nthe hollow under the junction of the arm and theshoulder. (See Fig. 1.)back-break point, nthe location on t
6、he back of the torsowhere the arm separates from the body (See Fig. 2.)cervicale, nthe prominent point of the seventh or lowestneck vertebra at the back of the torso.DISCUSSIONThe cervicale is identified by being more prominentwhen the head is bent forward; however, cervicale height measure-ments ar

9、oint, nthe juncture of the collarbone and theshoulder blade.DISCUSSIONThe outer end of the collarbone or clavicle pivotsagainst the acromion which in turn pivots against the humerus or upperarm bone in the arm. These bones form the shoulder girdle. (See alsoacromion.) (See Fig. 2.)waist, nthe part o
