IDENTIFICATION OF HUMAN & MINK MUSCLES
OBJECTIVES
1. To define origin, insertion, agonist, antagonist and synergist.
2. To cite criteria in naming skeletal muscles.
3. To name and locate the major muscles of the human body on models.
4. To identify cat muscles.
5. To name the origin and insertion of the major human muscles, state the major movement or
action of each, and explain how muscle actions are related to their location.
6. To identify antagonists of the major prime movers.
NOTES:
The labbook has much more detail than you need to know for this unit. Also realize that your
TEXTBOOK actually has very good specifics and pictures on this same topic.
When examining a muscle (for the major muscles only, not all), know its origin, insertion, and
the MAJOR MOVEMENT or ACTION when contracting, its antagonist, as well as the REASON
for the muscle’s name.
For examples:
Biceps brachii and Triceps brachii are antagonistic to each other.
Name
Origin
Biceps brachii:
long head
short head
supraglenoid tubercle – scapula
coracoid process – scapula
Triceps brachii:
long head
lateral head
medial head
Infraglenoid tubercle – scapula
lateral surface – humerus
posterior surface – humerus
Insertion
Action
radial tuberosity – radius
flex forearm
Olecranon - ulna
extend forearm
