What is the insertion of the Spinalis?
Spinous processes of upper thoracic (thoracis)
Spinous processes of cervicals, except C-1 (cervicis)
What is the origin of the Longinssimus?
Common tendon (thoracis)
Transverse processes of upper 5 thoracic vertebrae* (cervicis and capitis)
*(also part of insertion of the thoracis section)
What is the insertion of the Longissimus?
Lower 9 ribs and transverse processes of thoacic vertebrae* (thoracis)
Transverse processes of cervical vertebrae (cervicis)
Mastoid process of temporal bone (capitis)
*(also part of origin of the cervicis and capitis sections)
What is the origin of the Iliocostalis?
Common tendon (lumborum)
Posterior surface of ribs (1-12) (thoracis and cervicis)
What is the insertion of the Iliocostalis?
Transeverse processes of lumbar verebrae 1-3 and posterior surface of ribs 6-12 (lumborum)
Posterior surface of ribs 1-6 (thoracis)
Transverse processes of lower cervicals (cervicis)
What is the origin of the multifidi?
