Skeletal muscle gross anatomy II Flashcards
4 rotator cuff muscles
SITS muscles
suprespinatus (abduction)
infraspinatus (lateral rotation)
teres minor (adduct, lateral rotation, some extension)
subscapularius (medial rotation)
opposing muscles in rotator cuff
infraspinatus (lateral rotation)
subscapularius (medial rotation)
pectoralis major origin, insertion, functions of
Origin: broadly along thoracic cage
Insertion: lateral side of humerus
Function: arm flexion, adduction, medial rotation, extension if arm is already flexed
latissimus dorsi origin, insertion, functions
Origin: borad origin on lumbar/thoracic region
Insertion: anterior side of humerus
Function: arm extension, adduction, medial rotation
deltoid origin, insertion, function
Origins: broad on clavicle and scapula
Insertion: humerus
Function: abduction, medial/lateral rotation of arm, flexion/extension
muscles that move the forearm
Extension
- triceps brachii
- anconeus
Flexion
-biceps brachii
- brachioradialis
- brachialis
Supination
- supinator
- biceps brachii
Pronation
- pronator quadratus
- pronator teres
muscles that pronate
pronator teres and pronator quadratus
trips brachii origin, insertion, function
Origin: scapula, humerus
Insertion: olecranon process (ulna)
Function: extension of forearm
anconeus origin, insertion, function
Origin: distal humerus
Insertion: olecranon process (ulna)
Function: extension of forearm
biceps brachii origin, insertion, function
Origin: sacpula
Insertion: radius
Function: elbow flexion, supination
brachioradialis origin, insertion, function
Origin: distal humerus
Insertion: radius
Function: elbow flexion
brachialis origin, insertion, function
Origin: anterior distal humerus
Insertion: ulna
Function: elbow flexion
3 muscles involved in elbow flexion
biceps brachii
brachioradialis
brachialis
2 muscles involved in elbow flexion
triceps brachii
anconeus
