Triceps Brachii Inferior,distal margin of mandible(anterior belly)mastoid notch of long head:infraglenoid tuberclelateral head:posterior surface proximal half of humerus.medial head:posterior surface distal half of humerus. olecranon process of ulna extension of elbow.long head: extension of humerus
Deltoid lateral 1/3 of clavicle, lateral acromion and spine of scapula deltoid tuberosity of humerus anterior:flexion, horizontal adduction, medial rotation of humerus.middle:abduction of humerus to 90 degrees.posterior-extension, horizontal abduction, lateral rotation of humerus.
Pectoralis Major medial half of clavicle, sternum and cartilages of upper 6 ribs. greater tubercle of humerus. all fibers: adduct and medially rotate g/h joint. assist in elevating thorax during forced inhalation.upper fibers:flex and horizontally adduct g/h joint.lower fibers: extend g/h joint
Latissimus Dorsi spinous processes of last six thoracic vertebrae, last 3-4 ribs, thoracolumbaraponeurosis and posterior iliac crest. crest of lesser tubercle of humerus extension, medial rotation and adduction of g/h joint.
Supraspinatus supraspinous fossa of scapula greater tubercle of humerus abduction of g/h joint.stabilizes head of humerus
Infraspinatus infraspinous fossa of scapula greater tubercle of humerus lateral rotation, adduction, extension and horizontal abduction of g/h joint.stabilizes head of humerus.
Teres Minor superior half of lateral border of scapula greater tubercle of humerus laterally rotates, adducts, extends and horizontally abducts g/h joint.stabilizes head of humerus.
Subscapularis subscapular fossa of scapula lesser tubercle of humerus medially rotates g/h joint.stabilizes head of humerus.
Levator Scapula Transverse processes first thru fourth cervicle vertebrae. upper region of medial border and superior angle of scapula. elevation and downward rotation of scapula.laterally flexes head and neck.rotates head and neck to same side.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
