skeletal muscles
endomysium, perimysium, epimysium
3 groups of muscle that merge together to form a tendon
antagonist
A muscle whose action opposes the action of another muscle
adduction
Movement toward the midline of the body
external oblique, rectus abdominus, internal oblique, transverse abdominus
abdominal muscle
extension of the humerus at the shoulder
action of the latissimus dorsii
gracilis, adductor longus, adductor brevis
adductor muscles of the thigh
biceps brachii
all of the following are considered hamstring muscles except which of the following: biceps femoris, semimembranosus, semitendinosus, biceps brachii
teres major
all of the following muscles are of the rotator cuff group except the: supraspinatus, infraspinatus, trees major, teres minor, subscapularis
quadriceps femoris

just look at it
just look at it
pronator radii teres and brachioradialis
muscles involved in the pronation of the hand
temporalis, masseter, medial pterygoid, lateral pterygoid, buccanator
muscles of mastification
agonist
prime mover
ball and socket joint
shoulder and hip are what joints?
platysma
skin to skin (fright muscle) (unique)
amphiarthrosis
slightly mobile
sartorius
tailor's muscle, honeymoon muscle
plantar flexion
the calf muscles allow us to do:
extension of the knee at the leg
the knee allows what motion?
synovial
the knee is a classic example of which of the following structural joints?
pectoralis major
the muscle that latissimus doors are antagonist to
extension of the leg at the knee
the muscles in the anterior compartment of the thigh are mainly responsible for:
latissimus dorsi
the pectoralis major is antagonistic to which of the following muscles?
hyoid and sternum
the sternohyoid muscle runs between which of the following bones
gastrocnemius/soleus complex
the tendon of which of the following muscles inserts onto the calcaneus bone?
tibia
the weight baring bone of the leg
hamstrings
these muscles are prime movers in flexion of the leg at the knee
atlas
this bone holds the world on its shoulders and articulates with the occipital condyles
rectus femoris
this muscle is one of the quadriceps group
deltoid tuberosity of humerus
where does the deltoid insert?
clavicle and scapula
where does the deltoid originate from?
mastoid process
where does the sternocleidomastoid insert?
pupillary constrictor
which of the following is not one of the extrinsic eye muscles: superior oblique, inferior rectus, pupillary constrictor, superior rectus, inferior oblique
patellar ligament
which of the following is the continuation of the quadriceps tendon distal to the patella?
Sternocleidomastoid
which of the following muscles are not attached to the scapula: serrates anterior, subscapularis, biceps brachii, supraspinatus, sternocleidomastoid
head of the humerus
which structure articulates with the glenoid fossa of the scapula?
synovial cavity
which type of joint contains fluid filled cavity and is the most moveable joint in the body?
abduction
Movement away from the midline of the body
sutures
connects skull bones
brachialis, biceps brachii, brachioradialis
flexors of the forearm at the elbow
diarthrosis
freely movable joint
synergist
muscle that aids a prime mover in a movement and helps prevent rotation
rectus abdominus
muscle that flexes the vertebral column
