    Focus of Anatomical Study

    • Anatomy is the study of the structure of living organisms, including their tissues, organs, and systems.

    Muscles Moving Fingers Away from the Median Axis

    • Muscles that move a finger away from the median axis of the body are called abductors.

    Opposite Action to Adductors
