|---|---|
| The muscle fascicle arrangement for Orbicularis oris is best characterized as | circular |
| This arrangement of muscle fascicles tends to be triangular in shape. The Pectoralis major is an example of a muscle with this type of muscle fascicle arrangement. | convergent |
| The rectus femoris demonstrates this type of muscle fascicle arrangement. | bipennate |
| A muscle with fascicles that insert into only one side of the tendon is categorized as | unipennate |
| In addition to the Pectoralis major, another muscle that displays this pattern of fascicle arrangement is Latissimus dorsi. | convergent |
| This arrangement of fascicles tends to provide the greatest range of motion (shortening distance), though not the greatest power. | parallel |
| An example of a muscle with this type of fascicle arrangement is the orbicularis oris. | circular |
| The long axes of the fascicles run parallel to the long axis of the muscle is a description of this type of fascicle arrangement. | parallel |
| When muscle fascicles are arranged in concentric rings this arrangement is referred to as | circular |
| The arrangement of muscle fascicles in a sphincter is | circular |
| Which type of fascicle arrangement shortens the least? | bipennate |
| The biceps brachii operates in a ________-class lever system. | third |
| The gastrocnemius operates in a ________-class lever system. | second |
| The elbow joint is an example of a fulcrum as the biceps brachii flexes the forearm. | true |
| Third-class lever systems, like most skeletal muscles, enable great strength but sacrifice speed and distance of movement. | false |
| A lever system operating at a mechanical advantage can move a large load a short distance with a small amount of effort. | true |
| What is the functional relationship between the brachialis and the biceps brachii? | synergistic |
