24
Q

biceps brachii

A

prime mover of flexion of forearm, supinates forearm

25
bicep femoris
leg
26
deltoid
prime mover of arm abduction, injection site
27
frontalis
raise eyebrows, wrinkles forehead
28
gastrocnemius
prime mover of plantar flexion
29
iliopsoas
two muscles prime mover of hip flexion
30
orbicular oculi
squint, blink, wink
31
orbicular oris
pucker lips
32
pectoralis major
adducts, flexes arm
33
rectus femoris
injection site quadriceps
34
sartorius
'tailors muscle' synergist for leg crossing
35
tibialis anterior
dorsiflexes and inverts the foot
36
triceps brachii
prime mover of elbow extension antagonist of biceps brachii
37
buccinator
whistling muscle
38
trapezius
extends head, elevate, depress adduct, and stabilize scapula
39
drug that blocks ach receptor sites
no contraction. will stop because actin cant bind and there is no signal
40
drug that blocks calcuim from being released
myosin cant bind bc heads will not open
41
drug that promotes calcium release
enduce contractions petosin
42
drug that paralyzes the nerve to a muscle
no signal no contraction blocked stop pain but not the contraction
