Chapter 10 - Gross Muscular Anatomy Flashcards
Flexors of elbow
-Brachialis
-Biceps brachii
-Brachioradialis
Extensors of elbow
-Triceps brachii
-Aconeus
What are the things muscles are named according to?
-Shape
-Size
-Location
-Function
-Orientation of fascicles
-Origin/insertion
-Number of heads
Class 1 Levers
-Fulcrum is between the weight and the force
-Ex a seesaw, or the head movement at the atlantoocipital joint
Class 2 Levers
-Weight is between fulcrum and pull
-Ex wheelbarrow, or standing on toes (metatarsophalangeal joint)
Class 3 Levers
-Pull is located between fulcrum and weight
-Ex person with a shovel
-Ex biceps brachii with elbow as fulcrum
Four muscle groups of the rib cage
-Scalenes
-External intercostals
-Internal intercostals and transverse thoracis
-Diaphram
Scalenes
-Rib muscle group
-Elevate 1st two ribs during inspiration
External intercostals
-Rib muscle group
-Elevate the ribs
Internal intercostals and transverse thoracis
-Rib muscle group
-Depress ribs during expiration
Diaphram
-Rib muscle group
-Responsible for normal, quiet breathing
-Flattens during contraction and increases the volume of the thoracic cavity (resulting in inspiration)
Palatopharyngeus
Elevates the pharynx while swallowing
Salpingopharyngeus
Constricts pharynx from superior to inferior, forcing food into esophagus
Rectus muscles of eyeball
-Insert on sclera anterior to center of sphere
-Move eyeball laterally, superiorly, inferiorly, and medially
Oblique muscles of eyeball
-Insert into posterolateral margin of eyeball
-Both laterally deviate the eyeball
Transversus abdominis
Compresses abdominal wall
Pelvic diaphragm
-Funnel-shaped
-Supports pelvic viscera
-Pierced by anal canal, urethra, and vagina
