Question
Answer
Muscles can only __; they never __   Pull - Push  
🗑
As a msucle shortens, its __ moves toward its origin.   Insertion  
🗑
Name the 4 functional groups of muscle classification.   Prime movers, antagonists, synergists, or fixators.  
🗑
A muscle that provides major force for movement.   Prime mover (agonist) - leader.  
🗑
The biceps brachii muscle is a __ of elbow flexion.   Prime mover - inserts on radius.  
🗑
Muscles that oppose, or reverse, a partiuclar movement.   Antagonists  
🗑
When a prime mover is active, the antagonists is __.   Often stretched & may be relaxed.  
🗑
What contracts to provide resistance to prime mover?   Antagonists - to prevent overshoot or to stop/slow the movement.  
🗑
A prime mover & its antagonist are located on __ sides of the joint across which they act.   Opposite  
🗑
Fexion of forearm by biceps brachii muscle of arm is antagonized by the __.   Triceps brachii  
🗑
The tricep brachii is the prime mover for __ the forearm.   Extending  
🗑
Synergists assist prime movers how?   (1) adding force to movement & (2) reducing undesireable movements - stabilizing a joint.  
🗑
You can make a fist w/o bending wrist because?   Synergistic muscles stabilize the wrist.  
🗑
Muscles that help to maintain upright posture are?   Fixators  
🗑
Which type of muscles immobilize the scapula so only desired movements occur at shoulder joint?   Fixator muscles that run from axial skeleton to scapula.  
🗑
Skeletal muscles are named according to 7 criteria.   Location, shape, size, fiber direction, # of origins, location of attachments, & action.  
🗑
"Rectus" means?   Straight  
🗑
What factor results in muscles w/different shapes & capabilities?   Arrangement of fascicles.  
🗑
4 most common patterns of fascicle arrangement.   Parallel, pennante, convergent, circular.  
🗑
What is the fascicle pattern of sphincters?   Circular  
🗑
A fan-shaped muscle w/broad origin where fascicles taper into a single tendon of insertion is a __.   Convergent muscle.  
🗑
Strap-like muscles in which fascicles run parallel are said to be in __ arrangement.   Parallel  
🗑
Spindle-shaped parallel muscles are also called __.   Fusiform muscles.  
🗑
A "feather" shaped muscle w/short fascicles that attach obliquely to a central tendon is called a __.   Pennate muscle pattern.  
🗑
A pennat pattern in which fascicles insert only on 1 side.   Unipennate  
🗑
A pennate pattern w/fascicles insert of both sides.   Bipennate  
🗑
The extensor digitorum muscle of leg has __ pattern.   Unipennate - only inserts on 1 side.  
🗑
The fascicle pattern of rectus femoris of thigh is __.   Bipennate - attaches on both sides.  
🗑
A __ arrangement looks like many feathers situated side-by-side w/quills inserted into 1 tendon.   Multipennate  
🗑
The deltoid muscle has a __ fascicle arrangement.   Multipennate - forms roundness of shoulder.  
🗑
The arrangement of a muscle's __ determines its range of motion & power.   Fascicles  
🗑
Skeletal muscles shorten to about __% of thier resting length when they contract.   70%  
🗑
Which fascicle arrangement shortens the most?   Muscles w/parallel fascicle arrangment - not really powerful.  
🗑
The greater the total # of muscle cells, the __ the power.   Greater  
🗑
Which fascicle arrangement is most powerful?   Bipennante & multipennate muscles.  
🗑
What are the "fulcrums" in our bones?   Joints  
🗑
What are the levers in our bodies?   Bones  
🗑
The "effort" our muscle contractions provides are applied __.   At the muscle's insertion point on a bone.  
🗑
A lever operating at a "mechanical advantage" is a __.   Power lever=effort farther than load from fulcrum.  
🗑
A lever operating at a "mechanical disadvantage" is a __.   Speed lever=effort nearer than load to fulcrum.  
🗑
First-class levers   Load-Fulcrum-Effort -- Like a seesaw-fulcrum 1/2 way between-scissors  
🗑
What class leverage occurs when lifting head off chest?   First-class lever  
🗑
The action of triceps muscle in extending forearm against resistance operates at mechanical __.   Disadvantage  
🗑
Second-Class lever   Fulcrum-Load-Effort -- effort @ one end & fulcrum at other w/load between.  
🗑
Secon-class leverage when standing on __.   Tip toes  
🗑
What arrangement is Load-Fulcrum-Effort?   First-Class lever - like seesaw  
🗑
What arrangement is Fulcrum-Load-Effort?   Second-Class lever  
🗑
Second-class levers in body work at mechanical __.   Advantage  
🗑
Second-class levers are levers of __.   Strength, not speed or range of motion.  
🗑
Which class of levers are strength levers?   Second-Class = Fulcrum-Load-Effort.  
🗑
Third-Class Levers   Load-Effort-Fulcrum -- great speed - mechanical disadvantage - tweezers & forceps - most skeletal muscles.  
🗑
