Muscle Project
Follow the directions carefully!
1.) This project is due
2.) Purchase one of the many ‘muscle man’ type magazines or
search the Internet. Look for pictures in which muscles are
in a contracted / sometimes exaggerated state. In order to
use a muscle for the project, it must be in the contracted
state. For example, the muscle covering the forehead, the
frontalis is seen only when one is frowning – it gives a
wrinkled appearance to the forehead. If you attempt to show
this muscle on someone who is simply smiling, no credit
will be given.
3.) Display your pictures in a book / booklet or on poster
board in an organized fashion in a binder. Observe some of
the samples on display in the lab. Organize the muscles
into groups such as arm, leg, face….etc. Then divide them
into anterior and posterior groups and label them clearly
and neatly. Spelling counts! Label each muscle only one
time. Each picture you use should show a well delineated
muscle. E.g., it is difficult to see a biceps brachii on a
2” photo….
4.) Using the list of 37 superficial muscles, find and
label 25 of them. In your project, correctly identify,
label and then number them – 1 through 25.
5.) Using the list of 16 deep muscles, find and label 10 of
them. In your project, correctly identify, label and then
number them – 1 through 10. Since these are deep muscles
which will not be apparent on the surface, you only need to
indicate their approximate location on your pictures. E.g.,
the diaphragm can be indicated at the junction of the
thoracic and abdominal cavities.
6.) Be sure to use some system to distinguish superficial
from deep muscles. Some students prefer a section of
superficial muscles followed by a section of deep muscles.
Others will show them on the same picture but clearly code
them – such as orange colored labels for superficial
muscles and green labels for deep muscles.
7.) Then, for 15 of the muscles give a common everyday
action for that muscle. For example, rhomboideus major is
used when the arm is lowered against a resistance, as in
paddling a canoe. Yes—you may use this one in your project!
Identify the muscle and its everday action.
8) NO ADAM pictures and no illustrations and hand drawings.
