  1. Chapter 11Axial Muscles of the body Course objectives: Name and be able to identify specific axial muscles in the body. Know the origin and insertion of some muscles

  2. Naming Skeletal Muscles • Muscles are often times named based on specific characteristics: • Name based on muscle location - sternocleidomastoid • Name based on muscle shape - deltoid • Name based on muscle size – gluteus maximus • Name based on muscle fiber direction - rectus abdominis (rectus means straight) • Name based on the number of origins – triceps,biceps • Name based on the location of attachments - brachioradialis • Name based on its action – adductor longus

  3. Terms to know • Origin- where the muscle originates from. i.e. - least moveable end • Insertion- where the muscle attaches to. i.e. - most movable end • Action- the type of response the muscle creates when contracted. - flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, etc.

  4. Muscles to know and identify • Head: Frontalis, Occipitalis, Obicularis oculi, Obicularis oris, Zygomaticus major, Masseter, Temporalis. • Neck: Sternocleidomastoid • Back : Erector spinae = (iliocostalis, longissimus, spinalis), Serratus anterior, Trapezius, Rhomboids, and Latissimus dorsi. • Buttocks and pelvis: Gluteus maximus, Gluteus medius, Gluteus minimus, Psoas major, Iliacus.

  5. Head and neck muscles

  6. Head and neck muscles

  7. Back muscles

  8. Muscles to know and identify • Chest and abdomen: Pectoralis major, Diaphragm, External intercostals, Internal intercostals, Rectus abdominis, External oblique, Internal oblique, Transversus abdominis.

  9. Chest and abdomen muscles

  10. Deep chest muscles

  11. Structures to know and identify • Tendons • Galea aponeurosis • Linea alba • Iliotibial tract • Calcaneal “achiles” tendon

  12. Know origin and insertion • Masseter - Rectus abdominis • Biceps brachii - Rectus femoris • Triceps brachii - Biceps femoris • Latissimus dorsi - Sartorius • Deltoid - Gastrocnemeus

  13. Masseter • Origin: Zygomatic arch and bone • Insertion: Angle and ramus of mandible • Action: Prime mover of jaw closure

  14. Latissimus dorsi • Origin: Spinous proc of T6-T12, L1-L5; ribs 8-12 • Insertion: Intertubercular groove of humerus • Action: Extension, adduction and medial rotation of shoulder

  15. Deltoid • Origin: Clavicle, scapula acromion and spine • Insertion: Deltoid tuberosity of humerus • Action: Abducts shoulder; flexion and rotation of humerus; extension and lateral rotation of humerus

  16. Rectus abdominis • Origin: Pubic crest and symphysis • Insertion: Xyphoid process and costal cartilage ribs 5-7 • Action: Flex and rotate vertebral column; stabilize pelvis; exert abdominal pressure.
