Scene 1 (0s)

[Audio] Good morning everyone today we will present to you about the gross anatomy of the muscular system. We will discuss the attachment of muscles to bones via tendons the naming and function of specific muscles in allowing movements and stabilizing joints. We hope that this presentation will provide you with a better understanding of the complex interactions between the muscular and skeletal systems..

Scene 2 (25s)

[Audio] Understanding the names of these muscle groups and their functions is important for moving your body properly and efficiently..

Scene 3 (43s)

[Audio] Discuss Muscle Terminology. The origin of a muscle is attached to a more stationary bone. The insertion of a muscle is attached to the bone that has the greatest movement. The belly of a muscle is the largest portion of the muscle between the origin and insertion. Tendons are the fibrous connective tissues that attach muscles to bones. An aponeurosis is a very broad tendon that is found in the abdominal wall of mammals. An agonist is a muscle that contracts to produce an action. An antagonist is a muscle that works in opposition to the agonist. For example the biceps brachii can be used to lift weights and is the agonist but when you move a bowling ball back to prepare to bowl the biceps is the antagonist. Synergists are muscles that work together to produce a movement. The prime mover is the muscle that plays the major role in accomplishing the movement. Fixators are the muscles that stabilize the joints crossed by the prime mover and prevent the movement of the origin of the prime mover..

Scene 4 (1m 47s)

[Audio] Muscles play a vital role in human movement and stability. We will focus on muscle attachment and movements in this slide. The illustration represents the origins of biceps brachii on the scapula near the shoulder and biceps brachii (the agonist in flexion) in the anterior compartment of the arm. Triceps brachii(the antagonist in flexion) have origins on the scapula and humerus with insertion on the olecranon process in the posterior elbow. Triceps brachii(the agonist in extension) have insertion on the radial tuberosity in the elbow where it flexes the forearm and supinates the forearm. Understanding muscle attachment and movements is important to comprehend the function and function of the muscular system as a whole..

Scene 5 (2m 34s)

[Audio] The muscular system is the body's system of muscles which are responsible for movement support and maintaining posture. The table shows the data in the order: Pattern of fascicle arrangement Shape of muscle Examples. There are three different patterns of muscle fiber organization: circular convergent parallel and pennate. The circular pattern has fascicles arranged in a circle around an opening and the fascicle is circular with an opening in the center. Examples of this type include the Orbicularis oris and Orbicularis oculi. The convergent pattern has broadly distributed fascicles that converge at a single tendon. Examples of this type include the Pectoralis major and Pectoralis minor. The parallel pattern has fascicles that lie parallel to one another and the long axis of the muscle. Examples of this type include the Trapezius Rhomboidal and Quadrate. The pennate pattern has fascicles that originate from a tendon that runs the length of the entire muscle. There are three different types of pennate fiber organization: unipennate bipennate and multipennate. Unipennate has fascicles on only one side of the tendon bipennate has fascicles on both sides of the tendon and multipennate has fascicles arranged at many places around the central tendon. They are spread out at angles to many smaller tendons. Examples of this type include the Palmar interosseous and Semimembranosus. The fusiform pattern has fascicles that lie parallel to the long axis of the muscle and the belly of the muscle is larger in diameter than the ends. Examples of this type include the Biceps brachii (two-headed) and Triceps brachii (three-headed)..

Scene 6 (4m 15s)

[Audio] Discuss the classification and function of muscles based on their location size shape orientation of fascicles origin insertion and number of heads. For example the pectoralis gluteus is a large quadrangular muscle located in the chest with rectangularly oriented fascicles originating in the sternocleidomastoid and inserting in the brachioradialis having two heads and functioning as an extensor. Similarly the brachial is a large deltoid-shaped muscle located in the arm with obliquely oriented fascicles originating in the sternocleidomastoid and inserting in the brachioradialis having two heads and functioning as an extensor. The terms maximus minimus longus and brevis are used to describe the size of the muscle while the terms deltoid quadratus and teres are used to describe its shape. The terms rectus and oblique are used to describe the orientation of the fascicles while the terms sternocleidomastoid and brachioradialis are used to describe the origin and insertion of the muscle. The terms biceps and triceps are used to describe the number of heads of the muscle while the terms extensor abductor adductor and masseter are used to describe its function..

Scene 7 (5m 34s)

[Audio] We'll be discussing the muscular system and how it works. Focusing on muscle movements which involves the coordinated action of muscles tendons and bones to move parts of the body or the whole body. We'll explore the lever system used in these movements including the fulcrum weight and pull. The fulcrum is the hinge the weight is the load being moved and the pull is the force due to muscle contraction. The lever moves at the hinge to apply a force to the weight..

Scene 8 (6m 4s)

[Audio] Let's dive into the three types of levers in the muscular system. Class I levers have the fulcrum between the force and the weight such as a seesaw or head movement at the atlantooccipital joint. Class II levers have the weight between the fulcrum and the pull such as a wheelbarrow or standing on toes using the metatarsophalangeal joint. Class I-I-I levers have the pull located between the fulcrum and the weight such as a person using a shovel. The most common type of lever used in the muscular system is the Class I lever with the biceps brachii serving as the fulcrum and the elbow as the point of rotation. This information on the gross anatomy of the muscular system should be helpful..

Understanding the anatomy of these muscles can help to prevent injury and promote proper function..

Scene 36 (27m 13s)

[Audio] The muscular system plays a crucial role in breathing. During quiet breathing the diaphragm flattens and increases the volume of the thoracic cavity resulting in inspiration. However during expiration the ribs are depressed by the internal intercostals and transversus thoracis while the external intercostals elevate the ribs. Additionally the scalenes elevate the first two ribs during inspiration. This complex system of muscles works together to facilitate normal breathing..

Scene 37 (27m 43s)

[Audio] We will discuss the muscles of the thorax specifically those that are found in the region between the ribs and the sternum. Table 10.10 will be examined which illustrates the different muscles in this area including the diaphragm intercostals scalene muscles and the muscles that elevate the first rib. The diaphragm is a large muscle that is responsible for breathing originating in the interior of the ribs sternum and lumbar vertebrae and attached to the central tendon. When the diaphragm contracts it depresses the floor of the thorax allowing air to enter the lungs. The intercostals are a group of muscles that are found between the ribs responsible for quiet inspiration elevating the ribs and for forced expiration depressing the ribs. The scalene muscles are a group of muscles that are located in the neck and are responsible for elevating the first rib. Finally the muscles that elevate the first rib are responsible for elevating the first rib which is important for breathing..

Scene 38 (28m 41s)

[Audio] We will discuss the gross anatomy of the muscular system focusing on the thorax. The thorax is divided into two main parts: the anterior and lateral walls. The anterior wall is the front part of the thorax while the lateral walls are the sides. There are several muscles in the thorax including the intercostal muscles the sternocleidomastoid muscles and the trapezius muscles. The intercostal muscles are located between the ribs and are responsible for movement of the rib cage during inhalation and exhalation. The sternocleidomastoid muscles are located at the front of the neck and are responsible for movement of the head and neck. The trapezius muscles are located over the scapula and are responsible for movement of the shoulder blades. In terms of the anterior view the thorax is divided into three regions: the thoracic cavity the mediastinum and the pericardium. The thoracic cavity is the largest region and contains the heart lungs and major blood vessels..
