1
Q

This muscle is responsible for hiccups basically spasms

A

Diaphragm

2
Q

Name the three holes of the Diaphragm

And what are they for?

A

Abdominal Aorta, Vena Cava Foramen and Esophageal hiatus

Abdominal Aorta-away,

3
Q

Attachment site for the diaphragm

A

Central Tendon

4
Q

nerve that feeds the diaphragm

A

Phrenic Nerve

5
Q

involuntary contraction of the diaphragm will cause air to rush into the lungs and vocal cords to shut results in a

A

hiccup

6
Q

muscles between the ribs,meat on the ribs

stabilizes rib cage, assist in respiration

A

intercostals

7
Q

known as the the hip hiker muscle

deepest muscle of the abdomen ; watch the kidneys

originates at the posterior iliac crest inserts 12th rib and transverse process

accessible and workable on the lateral edge

A

Quadratus Lumborum

8
Q

known as the anatomical weight belt

A

Transverse abdominus p.211

9
Q

superficial of the spine
runs from the sacrum to the occiput along the posterior aspect of the vertebral column
includes iliocostalis, longissimus and spinalis(Lateral–>Medial)
I love sphaghetti

A

Erector Spinae Group

10
Q

responsible for rotation of the trunk

A

Obliques

11
Q

superficial to the erectors
where splenius capitus attaches at
finlike sheet of connective tissue that runs along the sagittal plane
help stabilize head and neck

A

Ligamentum Nuchae

12
Q

deep to the trapezius and rhomboids

deep to the splenius capitis

A

splenius capitis

splenius cervicis

13
Q

deep to the erector spinae muscle group

composed of three branches multifidi, rotatores and semispinalis

A

Transversospinalis Group

14
Q

Located between the spinous and transverse processes and progress down the spine and transverse but now borders are palpable.

A

lamina groove

15
Q

forms the speed bumps seen on the neck when extended

located along the thoracic and cervical vertebrae

A

semispinalis capitis

16
Q

accessible in lumbar spine, ONLY muscles with fibers that lie across the posterior surface of the sacrum
trouble makers

A

Multifidi

17
Q

shorter, smaller lie deep to the multifidi (troublemakers)

A

Rotatores

18
Q

A: to rotate and extend the vertebral column
O:sacrum and transverse processes
I: Spinous processes of lumbar vertebra 2-4 vertebrae

A

Multifidi

19
Q

A: to rotate and extend the vertebral column
O: Transverse processes of lumbar through cervical vertebrae
I: spinous process of lumbar vertebrae 1-2

A

Rotatores

20
Q

smallest of the erector spinae group and lies closest to the spine in the lamina groove
Only one attaches to the spinous process

A

spinalis

21
Q

assist in extension,lateral flexion, and rotation of the head and neck to the same side

A

longissiumus and iliocostalis

22
Q

broad, flat tendon stretching across the thorax and lumbar regions
anchor for several muscles

A

Thoracolumbar Aponeurosis

23
Q

Known as the Atlas

A

C1

24
Q

Known as the Axis

A

C2

30
Q

Curved, bent

A

Kyphosis

31
Q

State the order the spine curves

A

Cervical Lordosis,Thoracic Kyphosis, Lumbar Lordosis, Sacral Kyphosis
