Q

identify which of the ant muscles of the ab wall has the ff.

A

TVA

21
Q

identify which of the ant muscles of the ab wall has the ff.

origin: symphysis pubis, pubic crest & tubercle
insertion: xiphoid proc, 5th-7th cc’s, pubis

A

RA

22
Q

T or F: the upper 6 cc’s and lat 2/3 of the inguinal lig is part of the TVA’s origin

A

F, it’s lower 6 cc’s & lat of 2/3 inguinal lig

23
Q

both the EO & IO are responsible for trunk flexion and rotation, but which does contralateral and ipsilateral rotation?

A
EO = contralateral rotation -> inf-med fiber orientation
IO = ipsilateral rotation -> sup-med fiber orientation
24
Q

action of pyramidalis

A

tenses the linea alba

25
Q

this ant ab muscle is AKA the “straight up muscle”, as it flexes the vert column, and is an antilordotic muscle as it promotes __ pelvic tilt

A

RA; post

post pelvic tilt = pelvis tilts post -> butt tilts ant => corrects posture

26
Q

which ant ab muscles act as ant flexors of the trunk?

A

bilateral action of EO & IO + RA

27
Q

the main function of this ant ab muscle is to provide stability

A

TVA

28
Q

the post asp. of the ab wall are made of 3 muscles, namely

A

psoas, quadratus lumborum, iliacus

29
Q

muscles of the post ab wall that

  • flexes the thigh on trunk,
  • if the thigh is fixed, flexes the trunk on the thigh (eg sitting up from lying down position)
A

psoas & iliacus, AKA iliopsoas muscle

30
Q

this post ab muscle

  • fixes & depresses the 12th rib (for inspiration & forced respiration resp)
  • ipsilateral flex of the vert column
A

quadratus lumborum

31
Q

the psoas & iliacus insert at what part of the femur?

A

lesser trochanter

32
Q

the quadratus lumborum insert at what rib?

A

rib 12

33
Q

the 2 superficial vertical muscles are made of 2 grps, namely?

A

cervical muscles; erector spinae

34
Q

the transversospinalis muscle group are made of 3 muscles, namely

A

semispinalis, multifidus, rotatores

35
Q

general action of the transversospinalis muscle group bilaterally & unilaterally are?

A
bilateral = trunk ext
unilateral = contralateral trunk ext (via pulling SP to TP on opp side)
36
Q

collectively, this group of deep back muscles contribute to the stability of the vertebrae

A

deepest muscles of the vert column, AKA Segmental muscles

37
Q

the segmental muscles are made of 2 grps, namely?

A

interspinalis, intertransversarii

38
Q

T or F: due to the SHORT ATTACHMENT of the transverso-spinalis muscle grp, it mainly functions to STABILIZE the vert column during gross movement

A

T

39
Q

the transverso-spinalis muscle grp mainly originates & inserts at which parts of the vert?

A

origin: TP of vert => that’s why they’re called as transverso-spinalis
insertion: SP of vert => insertions are medial to their origins

40
Q

this muscle grp of the superficial vertical muscles act as primary extensors of the vert column & head

A

erector spinae

41
Q

main movements of the erector spinae bilaterally & unilaterally

A

bi - back ext (straighten back)

uni - lat bend of vert column

42
Q

erector spinae is made of 3 muscles, namely

A

iliocostalis, longissimus, thoracis

Q

the cervical muscles are prime movers of which body parts?

A

head & neck

44
Q

name the 3 muscle grps of the cervical muscles
