Muscles week 1 Flashcards
muscles
Specialized cells with the property of contractility
name of a muscle cell
myoblast
basis of motion
change from chemical to mechanical energy by enzymatic cleavage of ATP (adenosine triphosphate - stores energy in muscles)
3 types of muscles
Skeletal, Smooth, & Cardiac
skeletal
Voluntary…muscles controlled by central & peripheral nervous system (pharynx, esophagus, tongue, facial expression & mastication)
smooth
Involuntary…under control of autonomic nervous system (located in organs, glands & lining of blood vessels)
cardiac
involuntary (wall & major veins of heart)
cardiac and skeletal are considered
striated Muscle cells appear to be “banded”
Muscle cell is like a fiber
perimysium
covers each muscle fiber
epimysium
covers the entire muscle
myofibril
Any of the threadlike fibrils that make up the contractile part of a striated muscle fiber and are made up chiefly of actin and myosin filaments.
each myofibril contains
actin & myosin (proteins) which cause the contraction vital to muscle function
each muscle is a
bundle of muscle fibers, (myofibrils composed of myofilaments) each of which is
a long multinucleated cell.
myoblast
single mononucleated cells
myotube
myoblasts fused together to form multinucleated fiber during development
myofibril
a muscle fibril, one of the slender threads of a muscle fiber, composed of numerous myofilaments
origin
End of the muscle that is attached to the
least movable structure…(Home-Base)
insertion
Other end of muscle attached to
more moveable structure
action
Movement accomplished when the muscle fibers contract
Sternocleidomastoid
Origin: sternum & clavicle
Insertion: Mastoid process of Temporal Bone
Action: Flexes & rotates head
Divides the neck into anterior & posterior cervical triangles
*Innervation: 11th cranial/accessory nerve
Trapezius
Origin: occipital bone & midline of cervical/thoracic regions
Insertion: clavicle & scalpula
Action: Raises or lowers clavicle & scalpula
shoulders: “shrug”
*Innervation: 11th cranial/Accessory nerve
muscles of facial expression are
paired located superficial fascia of facial tissue
where do all muscles of facial expression originated from
Bone & insert into skin tissue
epicranial muscle
scalp region for facial expression
2 bellies of the epicranial muscle
frontal and occipital Connected by a scalpal tendon
Epicranial Aponeurosis
Muscle & tendon are one of the layers that forms the scalp
occipital belly of epicranial muscle
Origin: occipital & temporal bone,
Insert: epicranial aponeurosis
frontal belly of epicranial muscle
Origin: Epicranial aponeurosis,
Insert: eyebrow & root of nose
action: raise the eyebrows and scalp
Orbicularis oculi
encircles eye
Origin: orbital rim, nasal process of frontal bone, frontal process of maxilla
Insert: lateral skin of eye, some completely encircle eye
Action: closes eye, squints eye,
“crows feet”
Corrugator supercilii
Origin: on frontal bone in the supraorbital region
Insert: skin of eyebrow
Action: Draws skin tissue medially & inferiorly, causes wrinkles in forehead - Frowns
Orbicularis Oris
Origin encircles mouth
Inserts in skin at angle of mouth & philtrum of lip
Action: Closes lips, tightening: pursing, rolling in:+ grimace, thrusting out: pouting/kissing
This one makes it tough to scale lower ant. teeth!
Buccinator
Origin :
alveolar process &
pterygomandibular raphe
fibrous structure w/runs from hamulus to posterior portion of mylohyoid line
Inserts angle of mouth
(both horizontal and vertical fibers)
Action: pushes food back forms anterior portion of cheek & suction for suckling
Risorius
Origin: fascia of masseter muscle
Inserts: angle of mouth
Action: Widens mouth when smiling WIDELY, works w/ platysma = Grimace
Levator Labii Superioris
Origin: infraorbital rim of maxilla
Inserts: upper lip
Action?
elevates upper lip
Levator Labii Superioris Alaeque Nasi
Origin: frontal process of maxilla
Insert: ala & upper lip
Action: elevates both & dilates nostrils = sneer
Levator Anguli Oris located deep to the zygomaticus mus.
Origin: canine fossa
Inserts: angle of mouth ACTION?
elevates angle of mouth
zygomaticus major
Origin: zygomatic bone
Inserts: in angle of mouth positioned lateral to minor
function: elevate upper lip
zygomaticus minor
Origin: zygomatic bone
Insert: upper lip
function: assist with smile
Depressor anguli oris
Origin: lower mandible
Insert: in angle of mouth
Action: depresses the angle of the mouth = frown
