Chapter 10 - The Muscular System Flashcards

1
Q

Origins, Insertions and Actions

A

A. Origin – orginates from, usually a fixed or immovable point of attachment for muscle
B. Insertion – where it inserts, usually on a moveable bone
C. Action – defines the effect that’s exhibited through contraction

Q

Functional Classification of Muscles (AASF)

A

A. Agonists – prime mover, leaders of muscle or muscle group that has a specific movement
B. Antagonists – against the leaders, they oppose or reverse a particular movement
C. Synergists – help prime movers, they add extra force to the same movement, they reduce unnecessary movement as the prime movers contract
D. Fixators – prime stabilizers of a joint and they exhibit their action when other muscles

Q

Arrangement of Muscle Fascicles (CCPFUBM)

A 
A. Circular – the fascicles are arranged in concentric rings 
B. Convergent – muscle has a broad origin and its fascicles will converge with to a single tendon of insertion  
C. Parallel – long axis of fascicles runs parallel to the long axis of the muscle 
D. Fusiform – separate class of spindle shaped muscle, falls under a parallel class – biceps  
E. Unipennate – fascicles are short and they attach obliquely to a central tendon which runs the length of the muscle which runs the entire length of the muscle, the fascicles insert only in ONE side of the tendon 
F. Bipennate – fascicles insert into the tendon from opposite sides (looks like a feather)  
G. Multipennate – this looks like many feathers situated side by side with their quills into ONE tendon

Q

Naming Muscles

A

A. Location – bone or body region which the muscle is associated
B. Shape – named according to their dominate shape
C. Relative size – maximus, minimus, longeus and brevious
D. Direction of fascicles – some names reveals the direction of the fibers
E. Number of origins – biceps, triceps, and quadriceps
F. Location of origin and insertion – sternoclidomastiod – sternal and mastoid
G. Action – flex or extendsor or adductor, abduction
