Summary Introduction

To identify:

The three deep back muscle groups of erector spinae in the figure.

Introduction:

Muscles are soft tissues made of actin and myosin protein filaments. Muscles provide flexibility and contraction to the body structures. Muscles are of three types, namely skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles.

  Laboratory Manual for Holes Human Anatomy & Physiology Fetal Pig Version, Chapter 22, Problem F22.1A

Figure 1: Deep back muscle groups of erector spinae.

The deep back muscles are short muscles connected with the spine and vertebrae. The erector spinae consists of three different muscles, namely iliocostalis, longissimus, and spinalis muscles.

  • 1 -The group of longissimus capitis, iliocostalis cervicis, and longissimus cervicis - Longissimus capitis is present medial to the longissimus cervicis, and longissimus cervicis lies medial to longissimus thoracis. Ilicostalis cervicis originates from 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th ribs.
  • 2 - The group of spinalis capitis and spinalis cervicis -Spinalis capitis is inseparable and connected to semispinalis capitis. Spinalis cervicis is not a constant muscle and arises from the nuchal ligament.
  • 3. The group of iliocostalis, longissimus, and spinalis −This together known as erector spinae muscle and helps in neck rotation and body posture to be straight.
Conclusion

Thus, the three deep muscle groups of back run through the spine and provide posture and strength to the top body.

9. Aerobic respiration of one lipid molecule. The lipid is composed of one glycerol molecule connected to two fatty acid tails. One fatty acid is 12 carbons long and the other fatty acid is 18 carbons long in the figure below. Use the information below to determine how much ATP will be produced from the glycerol part of the lipid. Then, in part B, determine how much ATP is produced from the 2 fatty acids of the lipid. Finally put the NADH and ATP yields together from the glycerol and fatty acids (part A and B) to determine your total number of ATP produced per lipid. Assume no other carbon source is available. 18 carbons fatty acids 12 carbons 9 glycerol A. Glycerol is broken down to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, a glycolysis intermediate via the following pathway shown in the figure below. Notice this process costs one ATP but generates one FADH2. Continue generating ATP with glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate using the standard pathway and aerobic respiration. glycerol glycerol-3- phosphate…
