A&P - Lab List 8

Chapter 10: Muscles

TermDefinition
Opposing muscle groups Masseter & platysma, erector spinae & rectus abdominus, external intercostal muscles & internal intercostal muscles, biceps brachii & triceps brachii, deltoid & pectoralis major, and quadriceps femoris & hamstrings
Origin of orbicularis oculi Frontal bone and maxillary bone
Insertion of orbicularis oculi Tissue around eyelids
Action of orbicularis oculi Closes eye: blink, squint
Origin of orbicularis oris Maxillary bone and mandible
Insertion of orbicularis oris Lips
Action of orbicularis oris Compresses, purses, and protrudes lips
Origin of masseter Zygomatic arch and maxillary bone
Insertion of masseter Angle and ramus of mandible
Action of masseter Elevates mandible and closes the jaws (strongest jaw muscle)
Origin of platysma Fascia of chest, over pectoral muscle and deltoid muscle
Insertion of platysma Mandible (lower margin), skin of the cheek, and corners of the mouth
Action of platysma Tenses the skin of the neck and depresses the mandible
Origin of sternocleidomastoid Manubrium and medial end of the clavicle
Insertion of sternocleidomastoid Mastoid process of the temporal bone and superior nuchal line of the occipital bone
Action of sternocleidomastoid Flex the neck or bend head toward shoulder and turns face to opposite side
Origin of trapezius Occipital bone, and spinous processes of C7 & T1-T12
Insertion of trapezius Acromion of scapula, scapular spine, and lateral third of clavicle
Action of trapezius Depends on active region and state of other muscles. May elevate, retract, depress or rotate scapula upward; elevate clavicle; or extend neck
Origin of latissimus dorsi Spinous processes of T6-T12 and all lumbar vertebrae, ribs 8-12, and iliac crest
Insertion of latissimus dorsi Floor of intertubercular groove of humerus
Action of latissimus dorsi Extension, adduction and medial rotation at shoulder
Origin of erector spinae (more superficial = spinalis group, longissimus group, iliocostalis group, and deep layers) n/a
Insertion of erector spinae (more superficial = spinalis group, longissimus group, iliocostalis group, and deep layers) n/a
Action of erector spinae (more superficial = spinalis group, longissimus group, iliocostalis group, and deep layers) Laterally flexes or extends vertebral column
Origin of rectus abdominus Pubic crest and symphysis pubis
Insertion of rectus abdominus Inferior surfaces of costal cartilages (ribs 5-7) and xiphoid process
Action of rectus abdominus Depresses ribs, flexes vertebral column, and rotate lumbar region
Origin of external oblique Outer surface of lower 8 ribs
Insertion of external oblique Aponeurosis-linea alba, pubic crest, and iliac crest
Action of external oblique Flex vertebral column, rotate torso, lateral flexion, and increase abdominal pressure
Origin of diaphragm Xiphoid process, cartilages of ribs 4-10, and anterior surfaces of lumbar vertebrae
Insertion of diaphragm Central tendinous sheet
Action of diaphragm Inspiration: contraction expands thoracic cavity and compresses abdominopelvic cavity
Origin of external intercostal muscles Inferior border of rib above
Insertion of external intercostal muscles Superior border of rib below
Action of external intercostal muscles Elevates rib cage, aids inspiration, and is synergist with diaphragm
Origin of internal intercostal muscles Superior border of rib below
Insertion of internal intercostal muscles Inferior border or rib above
Action of internal intercostal muscles Depresses rib cage for forced expiration
Origin of biceps brachii Coracoid process (short head) and supraglenoid tubercle on scapula (long head)
Insertion of biceps brachii Tuberosity of the radius
Action of biceps brachii Flexion at elbow and shoulder, supination
Origin of triceps brachii Superior, lateral margin of olecranon of ulna, and humerus
Insertion of triceps brachii Olecranon of the ulna
Action of triceps brachii Extension at the elbow
Origin of deltoid Lateral third of clavicle and acromion and spine of scapula
Insertion of deltoid Deltoid tuberosity of humerus
Action of deltoid Abduction at shoulder flexion and medial rotation, extension and lateral rotation
Origin of pectoralis major Cartilages of ribs 2-6, body of sternum, and sternal end of clavicle
Insertion of pectoralis major Crest of greater tubercle and lateral lip of anterior intertubercular groove of humerus
Action of pectoralis major Flexion, adduction and medial rotation at shoulder
Origin of quadriceps femoris (rectus femoris, vastus intermedius, vastus lateralis, and vastus medialis) Anterior inferior iliac spine and superior acetabular, rim of ilium, anterior/lateral femur, greater trochanter, and intertrochanteric line
Insertion of quadriceps femoris (rectus femoris, vastus intermedius, vastus lateralis, and vastus medialis) Tibial tuberosity via patellar ligament
Action of quadriceps femoris (rectus femoris, vastus intermedius, vastus lateralis, and vastus medialis) Extension at knee and flexion at hip
Origin of sartorius Anterior superior iliac and spine
Insertion of sartorius Medial surface of tibia near tibial tuberosity
Action of sartorius Flexion at knee, flexion and lateral rotation at hip
Origin of hamstrings (biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus) Ischial tuberosity (long head), linea aspera and distal, femur (short head), ischial tuberosity, and ischial tuberosity
Insertion of hamstrings (biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus) Head of fibula and lateral condyle of tibia, medial tibia, and medial condyle of tibia
Action of hamstrings (biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus) Extends thigh and flexes knee
Origin of gluteus maximus Dorsal ilium, dorsal sacrum, and dorsal coccyx
Insertion of gluteus maximus Gluteal tuberosity of femur iliotibial tract- tibial tuberosity
Action of gluteus maximus Extend thigh, laterally rotate thigh, and abduct thigh
Origin of gastrocnemius Medial and lateral femoral, and condyles
Insertion of gastrocnemius Calcaneus via calcaneal tendon
Action of gastrocnemius Extension at ankle (plantar flexion), inversion of foot, and flexion at knee
Origin of soleus Head and proximal shaft of fibula and adjacent posteromedial shaft of tibia
Insertion of soleus Calcaneus via calcaneal tendon
Action of soleus Extension at ankle (plantar flexion)
Origin of tibialis anterior Lateral condyle of tibia
Insertion of tibialis anterior First cuneiform and first metatarsal
Action of tibialis anterior Dorsiflexion

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
