27
Q

When the limb is advanced and fixed _____ will pull the trunk cranially to advance the body

A

Deep pectoral muscles

28
Q

When the limb is not supporting weight the _____ will draw limb causally and flexes shoulder joint

A

Deep pectoral muscles

29
Q

what muscle pulls the free limb throughout the swing phase

A

Brachiocephalicus

30
Q

The thorax is suspended from the ground by

A

31
Q

What muscles primarily form supportive sling for pectoral girdle

A

Serratus ventralis and pectoralis profundus

32
Q

What is the role of the supportive sling in pectoral girdle

A

Prevent thorax from collapsing and also stabilize scapula against external forces and thus prevent unwanted displacement or rotation

38
Q

What muscles does the subscapular innervate

A

Subscapularis

39

40
Q

What muscles does axillary nerve innervate

A

Deltoideus, teres major, teres minor

41
Q

Where does the radial nerve originate

42
Q

What muscles does the radial nerve innervate

A

triceps brachii, extensor carpi radial is, ulnaris lateral is, common digital extensor, lateral digital extensor

43
Q

Where does the median and ulnar nerve originate

44
Q

What muscles does the median nerve innervate

A

45
Q

What muscles does the ulnar nerve innervate

A

Deep digital flexor and flexor carpi ulnaris

46
Q

What is the blood supply from great vessels in dog and pig for thoracic limb

A

Aortic arch—> brachiocephalic trunk and Left subclavian

Brachiocephalic—> R and L common carotid—> R subclavian—-> R. Internal thoracic

Left subclavian—> Left internal thoracic

47
Q

What do the right and left internal thoracic supply

A

Ventral thoracic and abdominal walls

48
Q

What does the right subclavian and left subclavian supply

A

Aortic arch—> brachiocephalic trunk—> L and R common carotid—> R and L subclavian

50
Q

Describe the blood supply of thoracic limb after subclavian

A

Axillary is a continuation of subclavian, to brachial, to common interosseous (last brachial branch) and median (continuation of brachial)—-> radial off of median and ulnar off of common interosseous—> carpal and metacarpal arteries

51
