How are circular and oblique muscles different in terms of shape and function? How would I know if I was looking at a rectus or oblique muscle? What characteristics would I look for? Why can’t muscles move without calcium? What does calcium do to allow muscles to move? There are multiple possible answers. How are the fast twitch and slow twitch muscles different? Briefly describe each. Where can I find the fast twitch and the slow twitch muscles?

Locate and list two different pairs of muscles that act as on the body as agonist/antagonist. (That is, in each pair, one muscle will produce a movement, such as flexion, that the other muscle will undo, and produce extension; abduction/adduction, etc. are other ways that muscle produce opposite actions on the same part of the body).Name two muscles that act as “fixators.” (What are fixators?) What joint or joints are they helping to stabilize?Why is the biceps brachii called a “bicep,” while the triceps brachii is called a “triceps?”What is the difference between a muscle with “longus” as part of its name and a muscle with “brevis” as a part of its name?
In my study guide, I have been going through notes and I am unsure of the topic on muscle arrangements. The main concept from the chapter on the study guide states "Describe the way that muscles are arranged in groups with complementary actions at a joint." So, how are the muscles are arranged by groups?
1) Describe the different criteria that contribute to how skeletal muscles are named. For example you can use the names of the muscles below to predict their location, action or appearance: Abdominal external oblique, Trapezius, Flexor carpi ulnaris, Gastrocnemius 2) Describe the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall. 3) Why are the muscles of the face different from typical skeletal muscle?
Puzzle 1: What is the main function of the muscles? In brief clarify the steps of muscles function. Puzzle 2: Define Extensibility, and, Elasticity? Justify the differentiation between them. Puzzle 3: What are Muscle Fibers? Named the Fiber Types. Puzzle 4: What are the categories of muscle fiber arrangements? Why do the muscle features need them? Puzzle 5: The changing in the muscle length are occur in three levels? What are they? What are the different between them? Puzzle 6: As body temperature elevates, the speeds of nerve and muscle functions increase. Justify previous phrase?

Several criteria were given for the naming of muscles. Match the muscle names (column B) to the criteria (column A). Note that more than one muscle may fit the criterion in some cases Column A action of the muscle 2 shape of the muscle 3 location of the origin and/or insertion of the muscle 4 number of origins 5 location of the muscle relative to a bone or body region 6 direction in which the muscle fibers run relative to some imaginary line 7 relative size of the muscle Column B abdominis transversus biceps brachiideltoid erector spinaeexternal intercostalsflexor digitorum superficialis pectoralis majorrectus abdominis
6. 7. Identify the muscles on the list below using images of drawings, models, or cadavers. Be able to give the action for each muscle on the list below, and the skeletal attachments for only the muscles that are indicated by an asterisk. When given an action, be able to determine which skeletal attachment point is the origin and which is the insertion. Muscle Identification, Actions, and Skeletal Attachments Identify the muscles in this list on an image of a drawing, model, or cadaver. Be able to give the action for ALL the muscles in this list. For muscles denoted with an *, know the skeletal attachments.
