Question
Chapter 10, Problem 9CR
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The relation of the terms “longus, extensors, triceps, rectus, and superficialis” with muscles.
Introduction:
Bone is an important part of the skeletal system. It provides strength, support, and framework to the body. There is a naming system that is used to name the bones. These names are used to represent function, structure or movement of the bones.

Students have asked these similar questions
Explain what the following names tell us about muscles: longus,extensor, triceps, rectus, superficialis.
As we begin to learn about muscles, how does the "design" of the different muscles types help with their function? (ie. what kind of control do we have of each type [smooth, cardiac, and skeletal] and how that effects the role of that type of muscle).
1) Describe the different criteria that contribute to how skeletal muscles are named.
For example you can use the names of the muscles below to predict their location, action or appearance:
Abdominal external oblique,
Trapezius,
Flexor carpi ulnaris,
Gastrocnemius
2) Describe the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall.
3) Why are the muscles of the face different from typical skeletal muscle?

- Describe each muscle needed to contract for specific movement and each muscles action during that action. Each muscle firing is it's own step. Something simple like kicking a ball is one action with multiple muscles firing it that action. You need at least 5 muscles involved in your action Example: Description: Picking up a glass of water. Muscles: Biceps, brachialis. Step 1: The brachialis has an origin at the humerus and inserts at the ulna. Contracting is a flexion action.
