Ribs are also known as | Costals |
O - T12 to L3 I - 9th to 12th ribs | Serratus posterior inferior |
These muscles are found between the ribs | Intercostals |
How many vertebrae are in the vertebral column? | 24 |
O - C7 to T3 spinous processes I - 2nd to 5th ribs | Serratus posterior superior |
What kind of ribs are the 11th and 12th considered? | Floating |
This lower back muscle depresses the ribs during exhalation. | Serratus posterior inferior |
In Latin, this means "white line." | Linea alba |
What are the most moveable vertebrae? | Cervical |
O - spinous C2 I - transverse C1 | Oblique capitis inferior |
O - iliac crest, inguinal ligament & thoracolumbar fascia I - lower 3 ribs, abdominal aponeurosis & linea alba | Internal obliques |
Finlike sheet of connective tissue that runs from the external occipital protuberance to the spinous process of C-7 | Ligamentum nuchae |
O - spinous processes of upper lumbar & lower thoracic vertebrae & ligamentum nuchae I - spinous procecess of upper thoracic & lower cervicals | Spinalis |
What part of the vertebral column is limited in rotation? | Lumbar |
External obliques rotate the vertebral column to the ________________ side. | Opposite |
O - inguinal ligament, iliac crest, lower 6 ribs I - abdominal aponeurosis and linea alba | Transverse abdominis |
The "washboard belly" is formed by what muscle? | Rectus abdominis |
Ligament that extends inferiorly from the ligamentum nuchae | Supraspinous ligament |
This dome shaped muscle is the main muscle of respiration. | Diaphragm |
O - Spinous process C2 I - nuchal line | Rectus capitis posterior major |
A broad flat tendon stretching across the thorax and lumbar regions | Thoracolumbar aponeurosis |
Multifidi and rotators bilaterally perform what action on the vertebral column | Extend |
All of these muscles flex the vertebral column | Abdominal |
O - posterior iliac crest I - 12th rib & the transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae | Quadratus lumborum |
This muscle compresses the abdominal contents and helps with forced exhalation. | Transverse abdominis |
A broad flat tendon | Aponeurosis |
The abdominal obliques flex the vetebral column to the _______________ side. | Same |
O - lower 8 ribs I - iliac crest, abdominal aponeurosis to linea alba | External obliques |
Rectus Capitis Posterior Major and Obliques Capitis Inferior (the suboccipital muscles that originate from C2) rotate the head to the ______________ side. | Same |
Multifidi and rotators can be easily felt where? | Lamina groove |
All of the suboccipitals that insert onto the occiput bring the head back into ____________. | Extension |
O - pubic crest and symphysis I - 5th, 6th, & 7th rib cartilage and the xiphoid process | Rectus abdominis |
O - common tendon & posterior surface of ribs 1 – 12 I - ribs 1 -12 and transverse processes of L1- L3 & lower cervicals | Iliocostalis |
This muscle is known as the "hip hiker" because it unilaterally tilts the pelvis, flex the vertebral column to the same side and can help extend the vertebral column | Quadratus lumborum |
This abdominal muscle only flexes the vertebral column | Rectus abdominis |
O - common tendon & transverse processes of upper 5 thoracic vertebrae I - lower 9 ribs, transverse processes of thoracic & cervical vertebrae & mastoid process | Longissimus |
What part of the vertebral column has limited movement? | Thoracic |
This entire muscle group unilaterally flex the vertebral column to the same side and bilaterally extend the vertebral column | Erector spinae |
Which suboccipital is not part of the suboccipital triangle? | Rectus capitis posterior minor |
Internal obliques rotate the vertebral column to the _______________ side. | Same |
Deepest abdominal muscle | Transverse abdominis |
Trough-like space between the spinous and transverse processes | Lamina groove |
These two muscles Unilaterally: rotate the head and neck to the same side & Bilaterally: extend the head and neck | Splenius capitis & cervicis |
O -Transverse C1 I – occiput | Oblique capitis superior |
O – atlas I - nuchal line | Rectus capitis posterior minor |
This upper back muscle elevates the ribs during inhalation. | Serratus posterior superior |
A vertebrae's posterior projection | spinous process |
