|
|
Fascicles run parallel to longitudinal axis and terminate at either end of a flat tendon
|
rectus
|
|
Fascicles are nearly parallel to the longitudinal axis of the
muscle that terminate in a flat tendon. The muscle is thicker at the belly and tapers towards the tendon. |
Fusiform
|
|
Fascicles run in concentric circular arrangement
|
Circular
|
|
Fascicles are spread over a broad area and converge at a thick central tendon.
|
Triangular
|
|
Short fascicles in relation to total muscle length, the tendons run almost the length of the muscle.
|
Pennate
|
|
Fascicles are on one side of a tendon
|
unipennate
|
|
Fascicles are arranged on both sides of a centrally located tendon
|
Bipennate
|
|
Fascicles attach obliquely from many directions to several tendons.
|
multipennate
|
|
The muscle that causes the desired action
|
agonist
|
|
Opposes the agonist
|
antagonist
|
|
Helps the agonist move more efficiently
|
Synergists
|
|
Stabilizes the origin of the prime mover
|
fixators
|
|
Largest muscle
|
maximus
|
|
In between the largest and the smallest
