the appendicular musculature consists of pronators/supinators T o F
True
when flexing or extending the wrist/hand/fingers from the forearm, what musculature is this working?
appendicular musculature
intrinsic hand muscles are part of the appendicular musculature? T o F
True
Most of the power for your hands come from your forearm T o F
True
what muscles move the pectoral girdle in the anterior thoracic muscles?
Pectoralis minor, serratus anterior, and subclavius
what is the muscle that depresses/protracts the scapula; hunches shoulder?
pectoralis minor
what muscle is fan-shaped between ribs and scapula. This muscle also protracts and stabilizes the scapula
serratus anterior
this muscle stabilizes/depresses the scapula and extends from the clavicle to 1st rib?
subclavius
what muscles move the pectoral girdle in the posterior thoracic muscles?
levator scapulae, Rhomboid major/minor, and trapezius
what muscle elevates/inferiorly rotates the scapula and is attached from your cervical vertebrae to scapula?
levator scapulae
what muscle elevates/retracts/rotates scapula? this muscle is also diamond-shaped and is attached from your skull/vertebrae column to scapula
trapezius
what muscle elevates/retracts/inferiorly rotates scapula? This muscle is located inferolateral from the vertebrae to scapula and is deep to the trapezius
Rhomboid major/minor
these muscles are retractors of the scapula
trapezius and Rhomboids
these muscles are protractors of the scapula
pectoralis minor and serratus anterior
retracted scapulae is ____ posture
good
protracted scapulae is _____ posture
poor
what muscles elevate the scapula? (there are 4 of them)
Rhomboid major and minor, levator scapulae, and trapezius (superior part)
what muscles depress the scapula? (2)
trapezius (inferior part), and pectoralis minor
what muscles superiorly rotate the scapula? (2)
serratus anterior and trapezius (superior part)
what muscles inferiorly rotate the scapula? (3)
Rhomboid major and minor and levator scapulae
what muscles move the arm and the glenohumeral joint?(7)
latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major, triceps brachii, biceps brachii, deltoid, coracobrachialis, and the teres major
what muscle extends/adducts/medially rotates the arm?
latissimus dorsi
what muscle flexes/adducts/medially rotates the arm?
pectoralis major
what muscle extends/adducts the arm?
triceps brachii
what muscle flexes the arm?
biceps brachii
what muscle it the prime abductor of the arm?
deltoid
what muscle flexes/abducts the arm?
