A&P:I:Muscles part 2

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
Parallel Muscles   Fibers parallel to the long axis of muscle e.g., biceps brachii The center or body of the muscle thickens when parallel muscle contracts Parallel muscles contract about 30%  
🗑
Convergent Muscles   A broad area converges on attachment site (tendon, aponeurosis, or raphe) Muscle fibers pull in different directions, depending on stimulation e.g., pectoralis muscles  
🗑
Pennate Muscles: Unipennate   fibers on 1 side of tendon e.g., extensor digitorum  
🗑
Pennate Muscles: bipennate   fibers on both sides of tendon e.g., rectus femoris  
🗑
Pennate Muscles: multipennate   Multipennate: tendon branches within muscle e.g., deltoid  
🗑
Pennate Muscles   Form angle with tendon Don’t move as far as parallel muscles Contain more myofibrils than parallel muscles Develop more tension than parallel muscles  
🗑
Circular Muscles   Also called sphincters Open and close to guard entrances of body e.g., obicularis oris  
🗑
What do muscles provide and required to overcome?   -Applied force -resistance  
🗑
What is lever's function?   direction of an AF distance & speed of movement produced by an AF effective strength of an AF  
🗑
What are the three types of classes dependent on?   force fulcrum and resistance  
🗑
Each bone is a ___ and each joint is a ____   Lever fulcrum  
🗑
First-Class Levers   Seesaw is an example Center fulcrum between applied force and resistance Force and resistance are balanced  
🗑
Second–Class Levers   Wheelbarrow is an example Center resistance between applied force & fulcrum A small force moves a large weight  
🗑
Third-Class Levers   Most common levers in the body Center applied force between resistance & fulcrum Greater force moves smaller resistance Maximizes speed and distance traveled  
🗑
Origin   Muscles have 1 fixed point of attachment (origin  
🗑
Insertion   1 moving point of attachment (insertion)  
🗑
Action   Movements produced by muscle contraction Body movements e.g., flexion, extension, adduction, etc. Described in terms of bone, joint, or region  
🗑
agonist   produces a particular movement  
🗑
Antagonist   opposes movement of a particular agonist  
🗑
What works in pairs?   agonist and antagonist  
🗑
How do agonist and antagonist work in paris together?   when 1 contracts, the other stretches i.e., flexors–extensors, abductors–adductors, etc.  
🗑
Synergist   a smaller muscle that assists a larger agonist and helps start motion or stabilize origin of agonist (fixator)  
🗑
sternocleidomastoid   from clavicle and sternum to mastoid Origin: Sternal head-manubrium of sternum Clavicle head-medial rd of clavicle Insertion=Mastoid  
🗑
Oblique muscles   -compress underlying structures -rotate vertebral column  
🗑
Diaphragmatic muscle or diaphragm   -divides thoracic and abdominal cavities -preforms respiration Origin=xiphoid process of sternum and costal cartilages and adjacent ribs 7-12 Insertion: central tendon  
🗑
supraspinatus   abduction at the shoulder Origin: spuraspinous fossa of scapula insertion:greater tubercle of humerus  
🗑
Gracilis   flexion at knee adduction and medial rotation at hip origin: body and inferior ramus of pubis insertion:medial surface of tibia  
🗑
sartorius   flexion at knee flexion and lateral rotation at hip Origin: anterior superior illiac spine Insertion: medial surface of body of tibia  
🗑
Gastrocnemius   extension (Plantar flexion) at ankle inversion of foot flexion at knee Origin- lateral and medial condyles of femur and capsule of kneee Insertion;calcaneus by way of calcaneal tendon  
🗑
why do muscles interact with one another?   Muscles work in groups to maximize efficiency  
🗑
___ muscles reach maximum tension first, followed by ____,____ muscles   smaller larger, primary  
🗑
6 ways that muscles are named   1)location 2)origin and insertion 3)fascicle organization 4) Relative position 5) Structural character 6) Action look in powerpoint for in depth  
🗑
Effects of Aging on the Muscular System   Skeletal muscle fibers become smaller in diameter Skeletal muscles become less elastic: develop increasing amounts of fibrous tissue (fibrosis) Decreased tolerance for exercise Decreased ability to recover from muscular injuries  
🗑
Internal Oblique   Origin: Anterior iliac crest, lateral half of inguinal ligament , and thoracolumbar fascia Insertion: Costal cartilage of ribs 8-12, abdominal aponeurosis to linea alba Actions: Flexes vertebral column, rotates vertebral column, laterally flexes  
🗑
External Oblique   Origin: External surfaces of ribs 5-12 Insertion: Anterior iliac crest and abdominal neurosis to linea alba Actions: Flexes vertebral column, rotates vertebral column, and laterally flexes vertebral column  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
