Bio 201 Anatomy, Final Exam Practice, Muscular System- Gross Anato
1. Insertion: When a skeletal muscle contracts to cause a given movement, the
relatively stationary end of attachment of the muscle is termed this:
2. antagonist: When a muscle contracts, it usually has an opposing muscle that cancause
movement in the opposite direction called this:
3. Arm: Knowing that muscles are often named for their anatomical location, the
brachialis, coracobrachialis and brachioradialis would all be found in this region:
4. All are correct: This pair is matched correctly:
a. fulcrum-joint
b. lever-bone
c. pull (force)-muscles
d. all are correct
5. Class 3 lever system: The action of the biceps brachii muscle pulling on theradius
to flex the elbow and elevate the hand is an example of this kind of lever:
6. orbicularis oculi: Winking or blinking the eye is controlled by this muscle:
7. sternocleidomastoid: These muscles of the neck tilts the head down and towardthe side:
8. Buccinator: These muscles are all involved in mastication (chewing) except:
9. prevent food from entering the nasal cavity: This best describes the action ofthe soft
palate muscles:
10. Superior rectus: Your five year old son is gazing up into the sky at night to seea
shooting star. He is using these eye muscles to look upward:
a. inferior oblique
b. lateral rectus
c. medial rectus
d. superior oblique
e. superior rectus
11. Diaphragm: This muscle produces the major movement made during breathing:
12. Extend the vertebral column: This action is accomplished by the erector spinal
muscles:
13. transversus abdominis: This is the deepest abdominal muscle:
14. Rectus abdominis: The six pack seen on a body builder's abdomen is causedby the
tendinous intersections in this muscle:
15. Coccygeus muscle and levator ani muscle: The pelvic diaphragm, whichforms
the pelvic floor, is made of this:
16. biceps brachii: This muscle flexes both the arm and the forearm:
17. Flexes neck: The trapezius muscle produces all of these actions except:
18. Flex ion of the wrist and fingers: Most of the anterior forearm muscles are
responsible for:
1/2
