what is an agonist?
the prime mover, a muscle that initiates a particular movement
what is an antagonist?
is a muscle that contracts to return a body part to its original position, movement opposite of the agonist
what is an insertion?
attached more distal or lateral end of muscle, at the joint where the primary movement takes place
what does origin refer to?
refers to the more proximal attached end of the muscle
what is a ligament?
a tough band of connective tissue that connects a bone to another bone
what is a synergist?
a muscle that assists the agonist
what is a tendon?
a tough band of connective tissue that connects muscle to bone or muscle to muscle, often serving as an origin or insertion for a muscle
What is Aponeurosis?
A broad flattened tendinous sheet of connective tissue, often serving as an origin or insertion for a muscle
what do the rhomboid major and minor share together? what is the only difference?..are they synergists?
they share the same insertion (medial border of the scapula), action (adducts scapula& slightly rotates it downward), inervation (dorsal scapular nerve),& arterial supply (subclavian branches). Originate at different places. minor@spinous processes of C7-T1, major@spinous processes of T2-T5.Yes they are synergists same action!
what are the actions of the trapezius and which muscles are its synergists and antagonist and why?
elevates clavicle; adducts, elevates&depresses scapula; rotates scapula upward. It has no synergists but it's antagonists are both rhomboids (rotate scapula downward instead of upward) and the levator scapulae (it elevates scapula instead of depressing it)
where does the trapezius originate? insert? it's inervation & arterial supply?
occipital bone, ligamentum nuchae & spines of C7-T12
insert@clavicle, acromion process&spine of scapula
inervation cranial nerve 11
blood supply: external carotid&subclavian branches
Which muscles do the subclavian artery and its branches supply?
rhomboids major& minor, levator scapulae, supraspinatus& infraspinatus
which muscles do the axillary artery and its branches supply?
pectoralis major& minor, serratus anterior, deltoid, latissmus dorsi, & teres major& minor
which muscles do the brachial artery and its branches supply?
biceps brachii, brachialis, brachioradialis, & triceps brachii. Biceps brachii also from the axillary
which muscles do radial artery and its branches supply?
extensors on the forearm, extensor carpi radialis longus, extensor carpi radialis brevis, extensor carpi ulnaris also the thenar group
which muscles do the ulnar artery and its branches supply?
to the flexors of the forearm, flexor carpi radialis, flexor carpi ulnaris, palmaris longus and pronator teres, and the hypothenar group
what muscle lies behind the biceps brachii?
brachialis
what action do all the muscles on the anterior part of the arm perform?
flex
what action do all the muscles on the posterior part of the arm perform?
extend
what two muscles on the posterior back and shoulder have the same insert (& where) and are synergists and which actions do they perform?
the latissimus dorsi and teres major which insert at the intertubercular groove of the humerus and extend, adducts & rotate arm medially
what is the origin & inervation of the lattissimus dorsi?
origin is spines C7-T12, lumbar vertebrae; sacrum & ilium via thoracolumbar fascia & lower 4 ribs, the inervation is the thoracodorsal nerve
what is the origin and inervation of the teres major?
lower subscapular nerve
where does the pectoralis minor originate and insert?
Originates from ribs 3-5 and inserts from coracoid process of the scapula
where does the serratus anterior originate and insert from?
originates at ribs 1-9 and inserts at the vertebral border & inferior angle of scapula
which muscles help with forced inspiration and where?
the pectoralis minor elevates ribs 3-5 in forced inspiration and the scalene muscles inserted at ribs 1&2, synergist to the pectoralis minor
what is the synergists to the sternocleidomastoid and which action do they perform?
the scalene muscles which help with neck flexion
what two things do the sternoclamastoid (anterior and lateral neck) and splenius capitis (posterior neck&spine) have in common? also both share this with what other muscle group and what is it?
both insert partly at the mastoid process of the temporal bone & have same blood supply of external carotid arteries and subclavian branches, blood supply also same for scalene muscles
what do all the posterior neck and spine muscles have in common?
all insert off of transverse processes, all same blood supply of branches of the abdominal aorta, & same inervation of dorsal rami of spinal nerves exception to splenius capitas dorsal rami of cervical nerves and quadratus lumborum ventral rami of spinal nerves
which muscle on the posterior spine has the same origin and insertion and what is it?
the longissimus which inserts& originates at the transverse processes of vertebrae
which action do the illiiocostalis, longissimus, and quadratus lumborum have in common and what does that make them?
they all laterally flex the vertebral column
What do all four muscles of the quadriceps femoris have in common?
they all extend the leg and the nerve supply is the femoral nerve, all insert all the tibial tuberosity by way of the patella & patellar ligament. rectus femoris also flexes the thigh tho
What do all 3 muscles of the hamstring do?
extend the thigh and flex the leg
What do the hamstring muscles have in common besides same action?
share origin at ischial tuberosity, inervation at tibial branch of sciatic nerve, and blood supply deep femoral artery
what do all the muscles below the knee share?
the same blood (arterial) supply which is popliteal artery branches
Which four muscles share the same inervation and blood supply that line along the neck and spine?
illiocostalis, longissimus, spinalis, quadratus lumborum all have inervation of dorsal rami of spinal nerves and blood supply of abdominal aorta
what action do the four muscles of the posterior neck and spine (illiocostalis, longissimus, spinalis, quadratus lumborum) all have in common?
laterally flex vertebral column
Which muscles all insert at the greater trochanter of the femur?
gluteus medius. gluteus minimus, piriformis, and superior & inferior gemellas
which muscles all originate at the pubic bone?
gracilis, adductor longus, and the pectineus, also partially the adductor magnus but that originates at the ischial tuberosity
what action do all the muscles of the medial compartment of the thigh perform?
they all adduct the thigh
Which muscles in the medial compartment of the thigh all have the same action and what is it?
adductor longus, pectineus, and the adductor magnus which is adduct the thigh, flexes and rotates it medially
what is the blood supply that all the muscles in the medial compartment of the thigh share?
femoral artery branches & obturator artery
