Muscular System
2
Muscles of the facial expression
Occipitofrontalis Orbicularis Oris Orbicularis oculi Auricularis Zygomaticus
3
Muscles of the facial expression
Occipito frontalis: The occipitofrontalis is a muscle of the human skull and consists of two parts: The occipital belly, near the occipital bone, and the frontal belly, near the frontal bone. Function :Draws the scalp back which raises the eyebrows and wrinkles the forehead.
4
Orbicularis Oculi: Origin: Medial side of eye
Insertion: Medial side of eye (returns to same attachment encircling the eye) Action: Closes & squints the eye. Also assists in tear transport and drainage N: CN VII (Facial nerve)
5
Zygomatic Origin: Zygomatic bone Insertion: Angle of Mouth
A: Elevation of Angle of Mouth as in smiling. Also draws laterally at the angle of the mouth Nerve: CN VII (Facial nerve) Zygomatic
6
Auricularis: Origin: Cartilage of auricle Insertion: Galeal aponeurosis Function: Adjusts position of ear
7
Auricularis:
8
Buccinator: Origin: Maxilla and Mandible
Insertion: Lips (buccinator muscle is located in the tissue of the cheek) Action: Compression of Cheeks (against teeth) Nerve: CN VII (Facial nerve)
9
Masseter: Origin: Zygomatic arch Insertion: Angle of mandible Function: Elevates and protracts mandible to close the jaw
11
Sternocleido mastoid Origin: sternum; clavicle
Insertion: temporal bone Action: flexes neck; rotates head side to side; assists you to look down
12
Trapezius Origin: Vertebral column Insertion: Scapula
Action: Elevation, adduction, depression and outward rotation of scapula
13
Scalenes Scalene origin
Origin: Transverse processes of the cervical vertebrae Scalene insertion Insertion: First and second ribs Scalene action Action: Bilaterally - Assists in neck flexion. Unilaterally - Neck lateral bending
14
Deltoid Origin: Lateral third of clavicle, acromion,
and spine of scapula Insertion: Deltoid tuberosity of humerus Action: Anterior part: flexes and medially rotates arm; Middle part: abducts arm; Posterior part: extends and laterally rotates arm
15
Latissmus dorsi
16
Pectoralis Major
17
Biceps Brachii
18
Brachio radialis
19
Brachialis
20
Triceps Originates on scapula Inserts on olecranon
Origin: Originates on scapula Insertion - Olecranon Function: Extends elbow Originates on scapula Inserts on olecranon
21
Flexors of the wrist
22
Extensors of the wrist
23
Flexors of the Wrist Palmaris longus-Superficial, flexes wrist Flexor carpi ulnaris-Superficial, flexes wrist, adducts wrist Flexor carpi radialis-Superficial, flexes wrist, abducts wrist
24
Extensors of the Wrist Extensor carpi radialis- Superficial, extends wrist, abducts wrist Extensor carpi ulnaris- Superficial, extends wrist, adducts wrist
25
Muscles of Respiration
26
Muscles of respiration:
Quiet breathing Inhalation: diaphragm, external intercostals. Exhalation: none. Forced breathing Inhalation: diaphragm, external intercostals, scalene, pectoralis minor,sternocleidomastiod, serratus anterior. Exhalation: internal intercostals, abdominals
27
Muscles acting on the abdominal wall
28
Muscles acting on the abdominal wall
There are five muscles in the abdominal wall. They can be divided into two groups: The Flat Muscles There are three flat muscles; the external oblique, internal oblique and transversus abdominis. They are located laterally in the abdominal wall, stacked upon one another. These muscles act to flex, laterally flex and rotate the trunk. Vertical Muscles Rectus Abdominis: This is a long, paired muscle, found either side of the midline in the abdominal wall. It is split into two by the linea alba. Pyramidalis:
29
Muscles acting on the hip and femur
Anterior group Posterior group Adductors Abductors
30
Anterior group It contains the following five muscles:
Sartorius: the longest muscle in the human body Quadriceps: Rectus femoris, Vastus lateralis, Vastus intermedius, vastus medialis Function: Knee Extensors and hip flexors
31
Anterior group of muscles
Iliopsoas group: Which consists of the psoas major and iliacus muscles. Quadriceps femoris group: Which consists of the rectus femoris, vastus intermedius, vastus lateralis, and vastus medialis.
32
Gluteal Muscles Gluteus maximus:Largest, most posterior gluteal muscle
Produces extension and lateral rotation at hip Tensor fasciae latae: Works with gluteus maximus Stabilizes iliotibial tract Gluteus medius and gluteus minimus:Originate anterior to gluteus maximus Insert on trochanter
33
Abductors of thigh Gluteus minimus: Abduction and medial rotation of thigh Gluteus medius: Abduction and medial rotation of thigh Gluteus maximus: External rotation and extension of hip joint Chief anti gravity muscle
34
Posterior group Flexors of the Knee Hamstrings Biceps femoris
Semimembranosus Semitendinosus
35
Posterior thigh
36
Adductors Located on medial side of the hip
Adductor magnus:Produces adduction, extension, and flexion Adductor brevis: Hip flexion and adduction Adductor longus: Hip flexion and adduction Pectineus: Hip flexion and adduction Gracilis: Hip flexion and adduction
37
Adductors
38
Muscles on the posterior compartment of leg
Four Muscles That Produce Extension (Plantar Flexion) at the Ankle Gastrocnemius Soleus Fibularis (group) Tibialis posterior
40
Gastronemius and Soleus
Posterior compartment of the leg. Origin: femur Insertion: Achilles tendon and inserts onto the posterior surface of the calcaneus or heel bone. Function Standing, walking, running and jumping. Plantar flexing the foot at the ankle joint and flexing the leg at the knee joint.
41
Muscles of lateral compartment of leg
Fibularis longus Fibularis brevis Function: Plantar flexion and Eversion of the foot
43
Muscles in anterior compartment of leg
Tibialis anterior: Origin: body of tibia Insertion: medial cuneiform and first meta tarsal of foot Function: Dorsi flexion and inversion of foot
44
Muscles acting on the feet
Muscles That Produce Extension at the Toes Extensor digitorum longus Extensor hallucis longus Extensor retinacula fibrous sheaths Muscles That Produce Flexion at the Toes Flexor digitorum longus Flexor hallucis longus Oppose the extensors
