Document Summary

Chapter 11 notes: describe the various muscle fascicle arrangements and give examples of each type, describe the functional implications of the different fascicle arrangements, list the components of a lever system and relate each component to body parts. Classify body movements as either first, second, or third class levers: relate origin and insertion of a muscle to the action of the muscle. Predict the action of a muscle if given the origin and insertion of the muscle and vice-versa. Predict the origin and insertion of a muscle (generally) if given the action at a joint: define prime mover, antagonist, synergist, and fixator. Textbook questions: read pages 262-266, 268-271, page 348, #1, 4, 6, 8, 10. I = humerus: pennate, short fascicles that attach obliquely to a tendon that runs the length of the muscle. Lecture #3: muscle compartments, anterior brachial, coracobrachialis, origin = corocoid process of scapula.
