Muscular System
2
Anterior muscle attachment & Actions
3
“Origin and insertion" Origin – where the fixed end of the muscle attaches to the bone (cartilage or connective tissue) Insertion – where the movable end of the muscle attaches to another structure
4
Origin: Temporal Bone Insertion: Mandible Movement (Action):
Temporalis Origin: Temporal Bone Insertion: Mandible Movement (Action): Closes Jaw
5
Origin: Frontal Bone and Maxilla
Orbicularis Oculi Origin: Frontal Bone and Maxilla Insertion: Tissue around the eye Movement (Action): Blinks and Closes Eyes
6
Origin: Mandible and Maxilla
Orbicularis Oris Origin: Mandible and Maxilla Insertion: Skin and muscles around the mouth Movement (Action): Closes and protrudes lips
7
Sternocleidomastoid Origin: sternum and clavicle Insertion: mastoid process of temporal bone Movement: flex and laterally rotates neck
8
Pectoralis major Origin: sternum and clavicle Insertion: humerus Movement: flexes shoulder, medially rotates arm, adducts arm
9
Deltoid Origin: clavicle, scapula Insertion: humerus Movement: flexion, abduction, extension of shoulder
10
External oblique Origin: ribs Insertion: pelvis (ilium) Movement: flexion at the hips and spine
11
Biceps Brachii Origin: scapula Insertion: radius Movement: forearm flexion and supination
12
Triceps Brachii Origin: scapula and humerus Insertion: ulna Movement: extends forearm
13
Latissimus Dorsi Origin: thoracic vertebra, ribs, pelvis Insertion: humerus Movement: extends, adducts, medially rotates shoulder
14
Quadriceps femoris Origin: pelvis, femur Insertion: patella and tibia Movement: extends knee, flexes hip
15
hamstrings Origin: pelvis Insertion: tibia and fibula Movement: extends hip, flexes knee, medially and laterally rotates leg
16
“Naming muscles” 1. )Number of Origins: (the end of the muscles that does not move) Biceps: 2 origins Triceps: 3 origins Quadriceps: 4 origins
17
2. Direction of muscle fibers
Rectus: muscles are parallel to the body Transverse: muscles are perpendicular to the body Oblique: muscles are at an angle to the body
18
3. SHape Deltoid: delta shape Trapezius: trapezoid shape
Orbicularis oculi: circular Serratus Anterior: “saw toothed” Teres major: long and round
19
4. Location- based on the location
Zygomaticus major: zygomatic bone Frontalis: frontal bone Orbicularis “Oculi”: eye Temporalis: temporal bone
20
5. Origin & Insertion Sternocleidomastoid
The muscles is has the name of the place it begins (origin) and the place it inserts (insertion) in its name. Sternocleidomastoid Sterno= sternum Cleido= clavicle Mastoid= mastoid process of temporal bone
21
6. size Maximus: large muscle Gluteus Maximus Medius: moderate size
Gluteus Medius Minimus: small muscle Gluteus Minimus Longus: long muscle Extensor Digitorum Longus Brevis: short muscle Extensor Digitorum Brevis
22
7. Action The movement that occurs when the muscle contracts.
Adductor Longus Abductor Digiti Minimi Extensor Digitorum Flexor Digitorum
