This wrist flexor originates on the medial epicondyle of the humerus and inserts on the palm
Palmaris Longus
This muscle can be found superficial to the Soleus muscle
Gastrocnemius
This muscle originates on the pubic bone and inserts on the posterior femur and is responsible for hip adduction and flexion
Pectineus
These muscles are used for compressing the thoracic cavity like during exhalation
Internal Intercostals
This muscle compresses the cheeks against the teeth and is used for activities like blowing out a candle
Buccinator
The ability of a muscle to stretch
Extensibility
This band contains both thick and thin filaments and doesn't change size during muscle contraction
The A band
This synergistic elbow extensor originates on the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and inserts on the olecranon of the ulna (Dr. Yard will ask this)
Anconeus, synergistic to the triceps brachii
This muscle is continuous with the iliotibial tract and is responsible for knee extension and lateral rotation, and weak hip ABduction.
Tensor Fascia Latae
This muscle originates in the lumbar region and inserts on the humerus. Responsible for adduction, internal rotation, and extension of the shoulder.
Latissimus Dorsi
This muscle is the main muscle responsible for scapular protraction, originates on the lateral edges of the first 8-9 ribs and inserts on the anterior scapula
Serratus Anterior

D) Suprascapular Notch to Hyoid Bone
D) Suprascapular Notch to Hyoid
A = Sternohyoid (sternum to hyoid)
B = Sternothyroid (sternum to thyroid)
C = Thyrohyoid (thyroid to hyoid)
The ability of a muscle to return to its original size
Elasticity
This ion binds to troponin, causing tropomyosin to move off the myosin binding sites
Calcium
This powerful wrist flexor originates on the medial epicondyle of the humerus and the olecranon, inserts on the pisiform bone, and is more medial in anatomical position
Flexor Carpi Ulnaris
