A

A: extension (hyper), rotation to opp side;
R: occipital

28
Q

Semispinalis Cervicis AR

A

A: extension (hyper, rotation to opp side;
R: cervical

29
Q

Semispinalis Thoracis AR

A

A: extension (hyper), rotation to opp side;

30
Q

Which deep spine muscles share the exact same actions?

A

multifidus, rotatores, semispinalis capitis, semispinalis cervicis, and semispinalis thoracis

31
Q

differs from the multifidus by going from 1 transverse process to 2 spinous processes

A

rotatores

32
Q

abdominal muscles (TIRE)

A

transversus abdominis, internal obliques, rectus abdominis, and external obliques

33
Q

External Obliques OIA

A

O: lower 8 ribs;
I: iliac crest, linea alba;
A: lateral flexion to same side, trunk flexion, rotation to opposite side

34
Q

Internal Obliques OIA

A

O: iliac crest, inguinal ligament;
I: pubic bone, 7th-9th ribs;
A: lateral flexion to same side, trunk flexion, rotation to same side

35
Q

important during forced expiration, coughing, and sneezing

A

internal obliques

36
Q

Rectus Abdominis OIA

A

O: pubic symphysis;
I: ribs 5-7, ziphoid process;
A: flexion of the trunk

37
Q

Transversus Abdominis OIA

A

O: inguinal ligament, iliac crest;
I: linea alba;
A: supports viscera

38
Q

primary ab muscle and is used during sit-ups and leg raises while lying down

A

rectus abdominis

39
Q

divide each rectus into 4 bellies, 8 total

A

tendinous bands

40
Q

deepest of the obliques and rectus abdominis, runs transversally. used for compression of the viscera (keeps everything, internal organs, in place)

A

transversus abdominis

41
Q

action of abdominal compression that reduces or maintains the size of the abdominal cavity

A

isometric action

42
Q

why is abdominal compression useful during lifting activities?

A

the decrease in cavity size causes an increase in pressure and pushes on the anterior lumbar bodies, which helps stabilize the spine and assist in producing lumbar extension, which is helpful when the spine is most vulnerable to injuries (lifting activities)

43
Q

lower trunk extensor

A

quadratus lumborum (posterior)

44
Q

Quadratus Lumborum (posterior) OIA

A

O: posterior part of iliac crest;
I: 12th rib, transverse processes of L1-L4;
A: lateral flexion to same side, extension, hyperextension

45
Q

4 sided muscle in lumbar region that helps to stabilize lumbar vertebrae as well as assisting in forced expiration

A

quadratus lumborum (posterior)

46
Q

Primary muscles of respiration

A

diaphragm, external intercostals, internal intercostals

47
Q

dome-shaped at the level of the xiphoid process and last 7 ribs. contracts downward to enlarge thoracic cavity during inspiration

A

diaphragm

48
Q

very deep muscle that is the most important muscle of inspiration. pressure changes occur within this muscle to help blood return to the heart (larger volume=less pressure)

A

diaphragm

49
Q

aid in inspiration and their fibers are oriented obliquely down and forward toward the costal cartilage

A

external intercostals

50
Q

attached between each rib, rib elevation to enlarge cavity during inspiration

A

aid in forced expiration and their fibers are oriented obliquely away from the costal cartilage

A

internal intercostals

Q

muscles that aid in inspiration

A

diaphragm, external intercostals

54
Q

muscles that aid in forced expiration
