61
Q

How to bones increase in width?

A

Bones increase in width by appositional growth, new bone added from outside onto existing bone

62

66
Q

How are muscles attatched onto bones?

A

Tendons attatch muscles to bones

67
Q

What is the origin of a muscle described as?

A

The origin of a muscle is described as the proximal/superior attatchment or distal/inferior attatchment, origin being the end that does not move

Q

What must skeletal muscles span to exert their action?

A

Skeletal muscles must cross a joint to exert their action, so are attatched by tendons to the bones on both sides of the joint
