The human rectus abdominis is definitely divided by four transverse tendons. These tendons are absent or difficult to identify in the cat. How do these tendons affect the human upright position?
The tendons in the human rectus abdominis act as focal points for muscle contraction, providing stability and support to the torso during upright posture. They help maintain proper spinal alignment and distribute forces evenly throughout the core muscles to prevent excessive strain on the spine. Their presence contributes to the overall strength and functionality of the abdominal muscles in supporting the body's upright position.
