Life on Land Part 2 Flashcards
Three Salivary glands and their locations
Parotid gland-below external ear
Submandibular gland-angle of the jaw
Sublingual gland-anterior to submandibular
Sternomastoid
Neck muscle
Wide, flat muscle that extends from the cranial end of the sternum to the side of the skull.
Together, the two sternomastoid muscles forms a c-shaped muscular collar at the base of the throat.
They act to turn the head
Where did the sternomastoid derive from
Primitive Cucullaris
In shark-pectoral fin up
In necturus-moving acapula
In mammals-turns head
Masseter
Large muscle mass located at each angle of the jaw, behind and below the eyes.
Elevates the mandible (jaw)
Temporalis
Muscle located above the eye and medial to the ear.
Elevates the jaw
The masseter and the temporalis evolved from what muscle in necturus
Adductor mandibulae
The superficial shoulder muscles and what they evolved from
Acromiotrapezius
Spinotrapezius
Clavotrapezius
Primitive Cucullaris
Clavotrapezius
Large muscle extending from the neck to the shoulder, and it is the most anterior of the trapezius group.
Acts to draw the scapula forward and dorsally
Acromiotrapezius
Thin, flat muscle extending from the middle of the back to the shoulder. It draws the scapular dorsally
Spinotrapezius
Located posterior to the Acromiotrapezius and is partly covered by it.
Draws the scapula dorsally
The hind limb of many mammals has been modified for ________
Rapid locomotion
2 Superficial medial thigh muscles of mammals
Sartorius: adducts and rotates the thigh
Gracilis: adduct the thigh
Hamstring muscles
Hamstrings lie posterior to the surface of the thigh.
Seminembranosus-large, thicker muscle lying deep to the gracilis. Divided throughout most of its length into 2 portions. Acts to extend the thigh.
Senitendinosus-Long, cylindrical muscle lies on the ventral border of the thigh. Flexes the leg.
Quadriceps femoris Complex muscles
Rectus femoris
Vastus medialis
Vastus lateralis
Vastus intermedius
Rectus femoris
Largely covered by the sartorius and runs along the femur. Adducts the thigh
Vastus medialis
Arises from the femur, extends the leg
Vastus lateralis
Extends the leg
Vastus intermedius action
Extends the leg
Gastrocnemius
Large calf muscle
Has two heads of origin that unite into a common muscle mass that ends with the strong calcaneal tendon of Achilles.
Extends the foot-running and walking
What is the strongest and largest tendon in the human body
Achilles tendon
Common sports injury due to high amount of pressure placed on it
Major difference observed to form the mammalian brain from the shark brain
Overgrowth of the telencephalon to from the marge cerebral hemispheres
How many cranial nerves does the amniote brain have
12 pairs
When the brain is removed from the skull, the outermost meninx ________ is usually left behind
Dura mater
Except in the vicinity of the pituitary gland where it appears as a tough white layer
Membranes of the brain
Dura mater
Meninges
Pia mater
Arachnoid membrane
Subarachnoid space
Subarachnoid space is filled with what?
Cerebrospinal fluid to help cushion the brain
