Chapter 10 - muscle systems Flashcards
List the 8 major muscles of the head and neck.
frontalis zygomaticus orbicularis oculi orbicularis oris masseter temporalis sternocleidomastoid splenius
Frontalis
Origin: galea aponeurotica
Insertion: skin of the eyebrows
function: raises eybrows and wrinkles forhead (surprise)
Zygomaticus
Origin: zygomatic bone
Insertion: skin at the corner of the mouth
Function: raises corner of the mouth (smiling)
Orbicularis oculi
Origin: frontal and maxillary bones
Insertion: tissue of the eyelid (circular)
Function: opening and closing of the eyelids (blinking)
Orbicularis oris
Origin: zygomatic bone and maxillary bones
Insertion: skin around the mouth (encircles)
Function: closing/pursing of lips (kissing)
Masseter
Origin: zygomatic arch and maxillary bones
Insertion: angle and ramus of the mandible
Function: PM of jaw closure
Temporalis
Origin: temporal fossa
Insertion: coronoid process of the mandible
Function: assists with jaw closure, maintains at resting state of jaw.
Sternocleidomastoid
Origin: manubrium and sternal portion of the clavicles
Insertion: mastoid process of the temporal bone
Function: when they act together results in flexion of the head. When a single side activates results in tilting towards that side and rotation away from it.
Splenius
Origin: C7-T6
Insertion: C2-4 and mastoid process of temporal bone
Function: when they act together result in extension/hyperextension of the head. When one side acts results in rotation and tilting to that side
List the 3 muscles of the abdomen
Rectus Abdominis
External Oblique
Internal Oblique
Rectus Abdominis
Origin: pubis
Insertion: sternum and ribs 5-7
Function: flexion and rotation at waist. Stabilizes pelvis while walking
External Oblique
Origin: lower 8 ribs
Insertion: iliac crest, pubic tubercle, linea alba
Function: trunk rotation and lateral flexion. Stabilize core
Internal Oblique
Origin: iliac crest, and lumbar fascia
Insertion: costal margin, last 3 ribs, linea alba
Function: trunk rotation and lateral flexion. stabilizes the core.
List the 4 muscles of respiration
Diaphragm
External Intercostals
Internal Intercostals
Pectoralis Major
Diaphragm
Origin: lower edge of rib cage, lumbar vertebrae
Insertion: central tendon
Function: as it contracts it thins increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity. Inspiration
External Intercostals
Origin: inferior border of the rib above
Insertion: superior border of the rib below
Function: top rib is held in place by other muscles, this results in the rib cage moving up increasing thoracic volume for Inspiration
Internal Intercostals
Origin: superior border of rib below
Insertion: inferior border of the rib above
Function: bottom rib is held in place resulting in the rib cage being pulled down decreasing thoracic volume for forced expiration.
List the 7 muscles of the shoulder, back, and arm
Trapezius Deltoid Pectoralis Major Latissimus dorsi Biceps Brachii Triceps Brachii Brachialis
Trapezius
Origin: nuchal lines of the occipital bone, spines of C7-T12
Insertion: acromion and spine of scapula
Function: stabilizes and moves scapula
Deltoid
Origin: acromion and spine of scapula
Insertion: deltoid tuberosity of humerus
Function: PM abduction, if half activates results in flexion/extension and rotation
