BIOC33H3 Lecture Notes - Abdominal Internal Oblique Muscle, Aponeurosis, Thyroid Hormones
Document Summary
Humerus of the foreleg (moves it towards the chest) Run anteriorly and and dorsally insert on the proximal end of the humerus on its medial surface ventral sides of the pig. Lumbodorsal fascia (aponeurosis= sheet of connective tissue in the area of the lower back) Alba = white (albino) the ventral aponeurosis (sheet- like fusion of tendons). Following 4 muscles= abdominal muscles= aid in support of abdominal organs by compressing the abdominal wall + flexing the trunk. **look for obliques near legs away from midline. Internal oblique they run in both a caudal and ventral direction) in an oblique direction. 4. Fibers run caudo- dorsally, perpendicular to those of the external. Fibers run transversely, from right to left, across the abdominal wall. Others run almost parallel to the external oblique. Covered by very tough fascia layer that needs to be removed to see the fibers. May need to remove fibers of latissmus dorsi/ external oblique.
