Study Notes

Muscles of the Human Body

  • Facial expression muscles include zygomaticus minor and major for smiling, orbicularis oris for puckering lips, buccinator for whistling, depressor anguli oris for frowning, depressor labii inferioris for pulling lower lip down, and mentalis for pouting.
  • Other facial expression muscles not shown include procerus for wrinkling the nose and risorius for smiling without teeth.
  • Extrinsic eye muscles, innervated by cranial nerves, include superior, medial, inferior, and lateral rectus, superior and inferior oblique for various eye movements.
  • Muscles of mastication, such as masseter and temporalis, elevate, depress, protract, and retract the mandible for chewing.
  • Suprahyoid muscles elevate the hyoid bone, while infrahyoid muscles depress it during swallowing or speaking.
  • Platysma tenses the skin of the neck, while sternocleidomastoid flexes the neck and rotates the head, and scalene muscles are synergists to sternocleidomastoid for neck flexion.
  • Muscles that move the vertebral column include erector spinae, transversospinalis, and quadratus lumborum for flexion, extension, and rotation.
  • Muscles that move the thoracic cage, such as diaphragm, external and internal intercostals, serratus posterior superior and inferior, and transversus thoracis, assist in respiration by elevating or depressing the ribs.
  • Rectus abdominis, enclosed in the rectus sheath, stabilizes, flexes, and rotates the vertebral column.
  • The diaphragm contracts during inhalation, external intercostals elevate ribs, and internal intercostals depress ribs during exhalation.
  • The action of the muscles is essential for basic functions like smiling, chewing, eye movement, respiration, and maintaining posture.
  • These muscles work in coordination with each other and are innervated by specific cranial nerves for their functions.
