Also, called the fixed end, is usually the most stationary, proximal end of the muscle.

A

Origin

also, called its insertion

33
Q

Order of Abdominal Muscles

A

FROM DEEP TO SUPERFICIAL

  1. Transverse Abdominal
  2. Internal obliques
  3. External Obliques
  4. Rectus Abdominis
34
Q

Properties of Muscle Tissue

A
  1. Contactility-Ability of muscle tissue to shorten @ contract forcefully.
  2. Excitability-Ability to respond to stimulus.
  3. Extensibility-Muscle stretch @ get longer.
  4. Elasticity-Return to original shape.
35
Q

Long band of muscle that stretches from the calf to pelvis.
It moves the thigh, and by extension, the leg.
Longest muscle in body.
Helps rotate leg into a sitting position (assumed by a tailor)

A

Sartorius (Muscle)

36
Q

Part of the posterior thigh muscle called hamstring.
Located most medially @ used for flexing the knee joint, while extending the hip.
Secondary action- is to medially rotate knee, important for stability.

A

Semimembranosus (Muscle)

37
Q

Muscle on back of thigh.
One of 3 muscles of hamstrings.
A long @ narrow muscle that stretches vertically from underside of pelvis to just below knee.
Responsible for-movements of hip @ knee joints.

Can be found between various skull bones, which fit together along an uneven edge @ are held in place by special kind of fiber (Sharpey’s Fibers).
A small amount of movement possible.

A

Suture Joint

42
Q

Type of soft tissue found in certain joints.

Helps joints move more freely @ helps protect them from wear @ tear.

A

Synovial Membrane

43
Q

Muscle located in skull.
Its job-To lift the mandible and allow jaw to close.
Located in temple area of head.

A

Temporalis (Muscle)

44
Q

Muscle located in lower leg used for inverting @ dorsiflexing the foot.
Vital muscle in movements such as walking or running.
Located on front of shin.
One of primary actions is Dorsiflexing the foot-pulling foot upwards and holding it there.
Another action-Inverting the foot @ the ankle

A

Tibialis Anterior (Muscle)

45
Q

47
Q

Muscle movement can be explained in terms of actions of __________

A

Levers

48
Q

Facts about Levers

A

A rigid shaft capable of turning about a hinge, or pivot joint called a fulcrum (F) and transferring a force applied at one point along the lever to a weight (W), or resistance, placed at another point along the lever. In the body, joints function as fulcrums and the bones function as levers. When muscles contract, the pull (P), or force of muscle contration is applied to the levers (bones), causing them to move. 3 classes of levers based on the relative positions of the levers, fulcrums, weights @ forces.

49
Q

Kicking Football Muscles

A

GASTROCENEMIUS @ SOLEUS muscles(calf) extend the ankle, while muscles on front of the tibia(TIBIALIS ANTERIOR) control to hold ankle rigid.
Much of the power for kicking is the result of the contraction of the thigh muscles (QUADS).
Then swinging femur forward (hip flexion) The main muscle responsible for hip flexion are PSOSAS MAJOR, PSOSAS MINOR, ILIACUS.
To allow hip flexion your hamstrings must relax.
STABILIZER muscles hold the body stable while you kick. They include: RECTUS ABDOMINUS, SPINAE muscle (back muscle), your GLUTEUS MAXIMUS at the back of hip and inner and outer thigh muscles (ADDUCTOR AND ABDUCTOR) muscle hold femur in alignment
