prime mover (muscle function)

produces direct movement
|
|
antagonist muscles
|
opposes the prime mover
|
|
fixator muscles
|
keep the joint stable (during depression of the tongue, the hyoglossus is the prime mover, the styloglossus is the antagonist because it pulls the tongue up, the infrahyoid muscles act as fixators to stabilize the hyoid bone
|
|
hyoglossus
|
prime mover in sucking movement, depresses the tongue
|
|
styloglossus
|
pulls the tongue up, the antagonist in the sucking movement
|
|
infrahyoid muscle
|
fixator muscle that stabilizes the hyoid bone
|
|
anatomical method of determining muscle function
|
find the origin and insertion of muscle, which joint it crosses, and which axes are involved. ask yourself which movement it produces, pull on the muscle and see what moves
|
|
other methods of determinging muscle function
|
palpation, electrical stimulation, electromyography, clinical method
|
|
arteries
|
carry blood away from the heart that will branch out until the level of the capillary bed, where gaseous exchange occurs (most carry oxygentated blood)
|
|
pulmonary arteries
|
carry unoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs
|
|
veins
|
carry blood to the heart, the tributaries unite back to the heart (most carry unoxygenated)
|
|
pulmonary veins
|
carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart
|
|
changing names of arteries
|
subclavian artery changes into the brachial in the arm, but it is the same thing
|
|
artery vs. vein
|
determine thickness of tunica media (smooth muscle); artery has thicker walls and is more firm/rigid; veins have thinner walls and tend to collapse on themselves giving flattened appearance
|
|
artery color appears
|
whiter
|
|
vein color appears
|
darker
|
|
how does blood return to the heart?
|
veins, pushed by negative pressure in the thorax
|
|
musculovenous pump
|
important in the limbs because blood has to work against gravity to get back to the heart (veins of the limbs have bicuspid valves)
|
|
when valves become incompetent
|
vericose veins
|
|
anastomoses
|
when vessels join together (ulnar artery in the arm, giving another pathway for blood to get back and forth if the main pathway is blocked (this does not happen in end arteries)
|
|
angiography
|
procedure where an opaque dye is injected into a vessel, determines the health of a vessel (can reveal aneurysms or show plaque of buildup)
|
|
most veriable structure
|
vessels (especially the veins) or the bicep might have three heads with extra insertions.
