Muscles of the Neck, Shoulder, Thorax, Abdomen Flashcards
superficial neck muscle which originates along the clavipectoral fascia and inserts at the inferior border of the body of the mandible. The action of this muscle is to elevate the skin of the neck
platysma

what is the origin, insertion, action, and innervatior of the Sternocleidomastoid

origin: manubrium of the sternum and clavicle
insertion: mastoid process of the temporal bone
action: flexion of the head (if both sides are innervated stiumultaneusly) or rotation of the head toward the opposite side (if only one side is innervated)
Innervation: CN XI, Accessory Nerve
what is the origin, insertion, action, and innervation of the trapezius?

origin: skull, cervical and thoracic vertebrae
insertion: clavivle, acrombion, spine of scapula

what is the origin, insertion, action, and innervation of the deltoid?

origin: spine of the scapula, acromion, clavicle
insertion: deltoid tuberosity of the humerus
action: flexion, extension, abduction medial and latrial rotation of the arm at the shoulder joint
innervation: axially nerve
what is the origin, insertion, action and innervation of the pectoralis major?

origin: clavicular part- medial half of the clavicle, sternocostal part- sternum and first 5 costal cartilages
insertion: crest of greater tubercle of humerus
action: adduction, medial rotation and flexion of the arm at the shoulder joint
innervation: medial and lateral pectoral nerves
what is the origin, insertion, action and innervation of the pectoralis minor?

origin: ribs 2-5
insertion: coracoid process of the scapula
action: depression of the scapula
