Rectis Capitis Posterior Major/Minor Obliquus Capitis Inferior/Superior Obliquus Capitis rotates to the opposite side and tilts head the other three rotate to the same side all of them extend the neck.
what are the names of the muscles above and below the spine of the scapula?
supraspinatus and infraspinatus
What is the name of the muscle on the ventral side of the scapula?

What molecule are microfilaments composed of?
actin
What are the functions of microfilaments?
give shape and structure to cell, in microvilli and filopodia, form tracks for myosin
What is the function of intermediate filaments? Are they contractile?
give structure to the cell by connecting to desmosomes and hemidesmosomes. non-contractile
What molecule makes up microtubules?
tubulin
What is the function of microtubules?
monorail system for motor proteins
What do tight junction proteins bind to on the inside of a cell?
actin microfilaments
T/F: tight junctions have homotypical protein interactions in between cells
True
What is the function of zonula adherens?
hold cells together
what are the two major proteins in zonula adherens?
catenin (inside) and cadherin (outside)
what molecule is cadherin dependent on?
Calcium
Zona adherens attach to what cytoskeletal element?
actin microfilaments
What is the important protein in focal adhesion junctions?
integrins
What do focal adhesion junctions attach to outside the cell?
extracellular matrix
