How does serratus anterior function as an antagonist to the rhomboideus muscles?
The serratus anterior is responsible for the protraction of the scapula. It pulls the scapula forward and around the rib cage, like when someone throws a punch. Often referred to as the "boxer's muscle". It is also responsible for stabilizing the scapula and assisting in its rotation upward.
What 4 muscles are used to prevent movement of a broken clavicle?
There are actually more than 4 muscles that should be immobilized. When you move your shoulders you move your clavicle. The muscles that causes movement at the shoulder joint should be immobilized. This includes the prime movers, as well as the assistant movers. The following muscles should be immobile. The subclavius which moves and depresses the clavicle as well as helps stabilize the pectoral girdle. The pectoralis minorabduct the scapula and rotates it downward, lowering your shoulders. The serratus anterior abducts the scapula and cause it to rotate upward, shrugging your shoulders. The trapezius stabilizes the scapula as well as move it, and helps extend head. The levator scapulae elevates the scapula and rotates it downward. The rhomboid majorelevates, adducts, rotates downward, and stabilizes the scapula. The Rhomboid minor does the same thing as the Rhomboid major. The pectoralis major adducts and medially rotates the arm at the shoulder joint; flexes arm at the clavicular head and extends the arm to the side of the trunk at the sternocostal head. The deltoid abducts the arm at the shoulder joint; flex and medially rotates the arm at shoulder joint; and extend and laterally rotates the arm at shoulder joint. The subscapularis medially rotates the arm at shoulder joint. The supraspinatus assists the deltoid muscle to abduct the arm at the should joint. The infraspinatuslaterally rotates and abducts the arm at the shoulder joint. The teres major extends the arm at the shoulder joint and assists in the adduction and medial rotation of the arm at the shoulder joint. The teres minor laterally rotates, extends, and adducts the arm at the shoulder joint. The coracobrachialis flexes and adducts the arm at the should joint.
What corresponding muscle does leg raises go to?
Abductor muscle - moves a limb away from the midlineAdductor muscle - moves a limb towards the midlineExtensor muscle - increase the angle at a joint - extends a limbFlexor muscle - decreases the angle at a joint - flexes a limbPronator muscle - turns a limb to face downwardsSupinator muscle - turns a limb to face upwardsRotator muscle - rotates a limbIn the human body, these are the responsible muscles.*Muscles which move the thigh and their action*Gluteus maximus - Extends and rotates thigh laterally.Adductor longus - Adducts, medially rotates and flexes the thighAdductor brevis - Adducts, laterally rotates and flexes the thighAdductor magnus - Adducts, flexes, laterally rotates and extends the thigh.Rectus femoris - Extends knee and flexes hipVastus lateralis - Extends kneeVastus medialis - Extends kneeVastus intermedius - Extends kneeSartorius - Flexes knee.

The Serratus Anterior moves the scapula forward and rotates it upward.
What does the inferior oblique muscle of the eye do?
The inferior oblique muscle of the eye, abducts, elevates and laterally rotates the eye
The teres major and tere minor originate on the?
A muscle with origin from the lower third of the border of the scapula, with insertion into the medial border of the , with nerve supply from the lower subscapular nerve from the fifth and the sixth cervical nerves, and whose action adducts and extends the arm and rotates it medially.

What is the muscle that pulls the scapula medially?
The subscapularis muscle medially rotates the scapula. The muscle is innervated by the upper and lower subscapular nerves.
What muscle group is your scapula from?
The scapula is not a muscle; it is a bone.
What upper arm muscle is named for its shape often the site of injections that abducts and rotates the arm is?
injections are normally given in the deltoid muscle which attaches to itself to the scapula and acromion
Does the trapezius contract?
Trapezius muscle- located from the skull through the cervical and thoracic vertebrae to the lateral 1/3 of the clavicle and spine of scapula. Function: Elevates, Depresses, Retracts, and rotates the scapula up and down. Innervated by the Spinal Accessory Nerve
What muscle extends the thigh?
There are many different muscles that help to move the thigh. The adductor Magnus is the muscle that extends the thigh. It also laterally rotates and flexes the thigh.
