Which muscle flexes the thigh?

A

Sartorius

21
Q

at the knee joint?

A

Hamstring group
(Bicep femoris, semimembranosus, semitendinosus)
Sartorius
Quadriceps group

22
Q

What are the quadriceps group?

A

Muscles in leg that extend knee
Rectus femoris
Three vastus muscles (vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius, vastus medialis)

23
Q

What muscles work on dorsiflexion and foot

inversion?

A

Tibialis anterior

24
Q

What muscle work on toe extension and dorsiflexion of the foot?

A

Extensor digitorum longus

25
Q

What muscles work on dorsiflexion?

A

Extensor digitorum longus

Tibialis anterior

26
Q

Which muscle works on plantar flexion and everts foot?

A

Fibularis muscles

27
Q

What muscles work in plantar flexion?

A

Fibularis muscles, soleus, gastrocnemius

Together Soleus and
Gastrocnemius via the
Calcaneal tendon
plantarflex the foot

28
Q

What are the antagonist of the hamstring group?

A

Quadriceps on anterior thigh

29
Q

What are two good sites for intramuscular injections in adult?

A

Gluteus medius, deltoid

30
Q

What are the common characteristics of all types of muscles?

A

Elongated (skeletal & smooth), contract by myofilaments (actin & myosin), has prefix (myo, mys, sarco)

31
Q

Three characteristics of smooth muscle

A

Visceral, non-striation, involuntary

32
Q

Three characteristics of cardiac muscle

A

Cardiac, striated, involuntary

33
Q

In microscopic muscle, where is the calcium stored and released on demand for muscle contraction?

A

Sarcoplasmic recticulum

34
Q

What are the properties of muscle cells?

A

Excitability, contractility
(Responsiveness, shorten)

Which leads to extensibility and elasticity

35
Q

What is the sliding filament theory?

A

Activation by nerve causes myosin head to attach to binding site of thin filament.
Then, myosin head pull the actin filament to the center of sarcomere.
Continue this action causes a sliding actin filament along the myosin.
This results in muscle contraction

36
Q

What is muscle movement that combines flexion, extension, addiction, or abduction?

A

Circumduction

37
Q

What is the antagonist of sternocleidomastoid?

A

Trapezius that extends head and which elevate, depress, adduct, and stabilize scapula

38
Q

The neurotransmitter — is vital to proper muscle functioning.

A

Acetylcholine

39
Q

Referring to the muscle attachment to bone, — is the immovable attachment site.

A

Origin

41
Q

A fascicle is wrapped by a layer of connective tissue called —.

A

Perimysium

42
Q

A

Tibialis anterior

43
Q

Muscles that are concerned with bracing actions are called —.

A

Fixators

44
Q

The bending or movement of a limb toward the midline of the body is known as —.

A

Adduction

45
Q
