Muscle System
Ch. 10
Four functional groups of muscle:
1- prime movers (agonists): Muscle that
bears the prime responsibility for effecting
a movement
2- antagonist: Muscle that opposes the
action of another muscle.
3- synergists: these muscles act as
stabilizers to the prime movers. They may
also contribute extra force to the prime
mover as well.
4- fixator: muscle that immobilizes one or
more bones (scapula)

Muscle are classified according to their fascicular
arrangement or attachment.
Parallel - long axis of fascicle runs with
longitudinal axis of muscle: sartorius muscle
Pennate - fascicle branch form central tendon
diagonally




Unipennate - extensor muscles
Bipennate - rectus femoris
Multipennate - deltoid
Convergent - fascicle converge toward a single
tendon: pectoralis major
Circular - fascicle are arranged in concentric rings
Orbicularis oris and oculi
Types of muscle attachments: direct and
indirect
Direct (tendon) - epimysium of muscle
fused to periosteum of bone or
perichondrium of cartilage.

Indirect (aponeurosis) - muscle fascia
extends beyond the muscle to bone or
another muscle. Latissimus dorsi or galea
aponeurotica
Muscle have points of attachment on the
skeleton via tendons or aponeurosis
Origin and insertion
Origin: end of the muscle attaches to the
stationary bone (non-moveable)
Insertion: end of muscle attaches to the
moving bone
Biceps (two heads) have two origins on
the scapula
Biceps inserts on the radius (crosses
elbow joint)
