Obliquus capitis inferior Rotation of face to same side
Interspinalis Spinous procees above to spinous process below
Interspinalis stabilization
Intertransversarii transverse process above to transverse process below
Intertransversarii stabilization
Levatores costarum transverse process tips of C7 to T11 --> pass inferolaterally and insert on rib
Levatores costarum elevates rib

Multifidus extend the vertebral column and rotates the vcertebral column contralaterally
Rotatores transverse processesof C2 vertebra to the sacrum --> near lamina immed. above vert. or origin
Rotatores extend the vertebral column and rotates the vcertebral column contralaterally
Semispinalis thoracis Transverse processes of T7-T12 vertebrae --> spinous processes of C6-T6 vertebrae
Semispinalis thoracis EXTEND the C and T regions of vert column and ROTATES the column contralaterally
Semispinalis cervicis Transsverse process of T1-T6 vertebrae --> Spinous processes of C2-C5
Semispinalis cervicis EXTEND the C and T regions of vert column and ROTATES the column contralaterally
Semispinalis capitis Transverse processes of C7-T6 vert --> between the sup and inf nuchal lines on occipital bone
Semispinalis capitis EXTENDs head and TURNS face towards the opposite side
Spinalis thoracis Spinous processes of T1-L2 vertebrae --> Spinous processes of T1-T8 vertebrae
Spinalis thoracis Bilateral-EXTEND vert column; Unilateral- lateral FLEXION of vert column
Spinalis cervicis Lower nuchal ligamnet and C7 spinous process --> spinous process of C2
Spinalis cervicis Bilateral-EXTEND vert column; Unilateral- lateral FLEXION of vert column
Longissimus thoracis Blends wth iliocostalis; transverse processes of lumbar vertebrae --> transverse processes of T vert and inf borders of ribs (Lower 10)
Longissimus thoracis Bilateral-EXTEND the vert column; Unilateral- lateral FLEXION of vert column
Longissimus cervicis Transverse processes of T1-T5 vert --> transverse processes of C2-C6 vert
Longissimus cervicis Bilateral-EXTEND the vert column; Unilateral- lateral FLEXION of vert column
Longissimus capitis Transverse processes of C5-T5 vert --> mastoid process of temporal bone
Longissimus capitis Bilateral-EXTEND the vert column; Unilateral- lateral FLEXION of vert column
Iliocostalis lumborum Iliac crest and sacrospinal aponeurosis --> thoacolumbar fascia and ribs 7-12
Iliocostalis lumborum Bilateral-EXTEND vert column; Unilateral--lateral FLEXION of vert column
Iliocostalis thoracis Ribs 6-12 --> ribs 1-6 and transverse process of C7 vertebra
Iliocostalis thoracis Bilateral-EXTEND vert column; Unilateral--lateral FLEXION of vert column
Iliocostalis cervicis Ribs 3-6 --> transverse processes of C4-C6 vertebrae
Iliocostalis cervicis Bilateral-EXTEND vert column; Unilateral--lateral FLEXION of vert column
Splenius capitis Nuchal ligament, spinous processes of C7-T4 vertebrae --> Mastoid process and occipital bone
Splenius capitis Acting alone: Laterally BENDS and ROTATES the head (same side); Acting together: EXTEND head and neck
Splenius cervicis Spinous processes of T3-T6 --> Transverse processes of C1-C3

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.
