What direction do the muscle fibers of the external oblique run?
The external abdominal obliques are on both sides of your torso. They run diagonally from external surfaces of ribs 5-12 (origin) to the anterior illiac crest and abdominal aponeurosis (insertion).
What name is given to the the large white central expansion that binds the fibers of the internal abdominal oblique muscle to the linea Alba?
sarcolemma
What is the name given to the large white central expansion that binds the fibers of the internal abdominal oblique muscle to the linea Alba?
sarcolemma
External obliques include what ribs?
The external oblique muscles originate from the fifth to the twelfth ribs. They are situated on the sides of the abdomen and play a crucial role in trunk rotation and lateral flexion. The fibers of these muscles run diagonally downward and medially, contributing to the overall structure and function of the abdominal wall.
Which abdominal muscle has fibers run vertically?
rectus abdominis
What muscle has fibers on a transverse plane?
Internal Intercostals
What do optical fibers rely on?
Total Internal Reflection
What is the fiber direction of a cats internal oblique muscles?
The cat's muscle fibers run perpendicular to its internal oblique muscles. The fibers of the external oblique muscles run opposite of the muscles.
Which muscle fibers are best suited for running a marathon?
Type I (red) muscle fibers, which have slow oxidative characteristics, are those primarily called on for long-distance running. These are more commonly referred to as 'slow-twitch' muscle fibers.
How striatum is related to fibers of internal capsule?
The striatum is a structure in the brain that is closely connected to the fibers of the internal capsule. The internal capsule contains important motor and sensory pathways that carry information to and from the cerebral cortex and the brainstem. Fibers from the cortex travel through the internal capsule to reach the striatum, forming a crucial pathway for communication between different regions of the brain involved in movement and control.
What is the internal capsule?
The internal capsule is the major structure carrying ascending and descending nerve projection fibers to and from the cerebral cortex
Activities such as swimming and running are most likely to stimulate development of what type of muscle fibers?
Slow, fatigue-resistant fibers
