1. The Muscular System Part 2:
Naming and Identifying Muscles
Muscle of the head
Get ready to take some notes

2. Naming Skeletal Muscles
Direction
Size
Location
# of origins
Location of origin or insertion
Shape
Action

3. Direction Direction of muscle fibers: The terms rectus (parallel)
transverse (perpendicular)
oblique (at an angle)
in muscle names refer to the direction of the muscle fibers with respect to the midline of the body.

4. Size
Maximus (largest), minimus (smallest), longus (longest), and brevis (shortest) are common suffixes added to muscle names.

5. Location A muscle name may indicate a nearby bone or body region.
Ex. temporalis muscle covers the temporal bone.
Ex. Rectus femoris

6. Number of Origins
Biceps, triceps, and quadriceps indicate two, three, and four origins, respectively.

7. Location of Origin or Insertion
The sternocleidomastoid names the sternum (“sterno”) and clavicle (“cleido”) as its origins and the mastoid process of the temporal bone as its insertion.

8. Shape
The deltoid (triangular), trapezius (trapezoid), serratus (saw‐toothed), and rhomboideus major (rhomboid) muscles have names that describe their shapes.

9. Action The motion terms we just tested on such as Flexor Extensor
adductor

Risorius - smiling
Medial Pterygoid - sphenoid
Zygomaticus - smiling
Lateral Pterygoid - sphenoid
Levator Anguli Oris - smiling
Corrugator -eyebrow furrows

14. Muscles of the Neck Today we are…
Going over the basic, outer muscles of the neck otherwise known as the posterior and anterior triangles

15. Splenius capitis
Shaking the head

16. The Upper Limb: Muscles of Scapular Stabilization Musculotendinous Cuff Shoulder Joint

17. 5 Muscles of Scapular Stabilization: This group of muscles are for support and movement of the clavicles and scapulae
Trapezius
Rhomboids
Levator scapulae
Serratus anterior
Pectoralis minor

18. Levator Scapulae: Lifting the Scapula

19. Trapezius
Function: lifting, retracting, rotating and depressing the scapulae

20. Rhomboids
Function: Retraction of the scapulae

21. Serratus Anterior
Function: Protraction/forward rotation of the scapula

22. Function: Depression of the shoulder point
Pectoralis Minor

23. 4 Muscles of Musculoteninous cuff: This group of muscles are for rotation, abduction of the upper limb
Supraspinatus
Infraspinatus
Teres minor
Subscapularis (not be tested on)

24. Supraspinatus
Functions: Abduction

25. Infraspinatus and Teres minor
Function: Lateral Rotation

26. Teres Major: adduction, extension, medial rotation

27. Subscapularis
Function: Medial Rotation

28. Muscles Acting on the Shoulder Joint
Deltoid
Pectoralis Major
Latissimus Dorsi
Teres Major

29. Deltoid: abduction, extension, flexion, medial and lateral rotation

30. Pectoralis Major: Adduction, extension, flexion, medial rotation

31. Latissimus Dorsi: adduction, extension, medial rotation

32. Lets Learn These! Quiz tomorrow
Get a partner
Making a note card for each muscle
Lab Guide (neck, shoulders, and chest)
Name of the muscles on one side
Function on the other (one word. Ex. Flexion)
Pair up with anyone you would like, pick a card from the top of your stack and identify it. Partners, you check for correctness

33. Arms Shoulder and chest quiz Go over new muscles
Make flashcards or sticky-notes
Quiz tomorrow (at the end of class when we have done some stuff with the arm muscles)

34. Arms and Shoulders
Flexor carpi radialis – Flexes wrist and abducts the hand
Flexor carpi ulnaris – flexes wrist and adducts hand

35. Arms and Shoulders Triceps – extends elbow
Extensor carpi radialis – extends wrists and abducts hand
Extensor digitorum – extends fingers and wrist

36. Abdomen Rectus Abdominis External Oblique Internal Oblique
Transversus Abdominis

37. Hip/Thigh/Leg Adductor muscles Sartorius – flexes thigh and hip
Quads (vastus med. Inter. Lateralis, and rectus femoris) – extend the knee and flex the hip
Tibialis anterior – dorsiflexion
Soleus - dorsiflexion

38. Hip/Thigh/Leg Gluteus Maximus – extends the hip
Gluteus Medius – Abducts thigh
