Muscular System

Parts of a Muscle 1. Origin: Point of attachment that does not move when a muscle contracts- usually bone, can be another muscle. 2. Belly: main body- actually contracts 3. Insertion: point of attachment that moves when a muscle contracts.

Muscle Actions 1.Agonist (prime movers)- move body out of anatomical position (flexors, abductors) 2.Antagonists- move body back to original position 3.Fixators- stabilize other muscles

Naming Muscles 1. Location of the muscle: anterior, dorsi, oculi=eye, oris=mouth 2. Size and shape: maximus, minimis, lattismus= broad, trapezius (trapezoid), deltoid (delta) 3. Number of origins: biceps (2), triceps (3), quadraceps (4) 4. Origins/ Insertions: tibialis- tibia femoris- femur sternocleidomastoidus- origin- sternum and clavicle, insertion- mastoid process 5. Direction of fibers: Orbicularis – in an orbit, rectus- run with midline, oblique – angled to midline
