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
The trapezius muscle in humans is a single, large muscle divided into three specific regions based on their functions: the upper trapezius, middle trapezius, and lower trapezius. Each region of the trapezius muscle contributes to different movements of the shoulder and neck.
Yes, the trapezius muscle is commonly referred to as the traps.
The synergist of the trapezius in scapular elevation is the levator scapulae muscle. It works together with the trapezius to elevate the scapula and assist in movements like shrugging the shoulders.
The human trapezius muscle is typically larger and more developed than a pig's trapezius due to differences in anatomy and function between the two species. Additionally, the attachment points and muscle fiber composition may vary between humans and pigs.
The rhomboid muscles and the middle trapezius muscle pull the scapulae medially. These muscles work together to retract and stabilize the scapulae toward the spine.
The biceps, pectoralis, and trapezius.

The trapezius is an upper back/neck muscle and the deltoids are shoulder muscles

A number of muscles are involved in shrugging your shoulders, including the latissiumus dorsi, the deltoids, the rhomboids, the scapular muscles, the biceps, the triceps, among others. The primary muscle is the upper trapezius muscle. The secondary muscles are the middle trapezius muscles and the levator scapulae.
show some good trapezius exercises for people who are constantly keyboarding
You can't have one muscle that both elevates AND depresses a bone. So your question is a little confusing, Upward rotation: Serratus anterior, Upper and lower fibers of trapezius Retraction (adduction): Middle fibers of trapezius, rhomboid major and minor Elevation: Upper fibers of trapezius, levator scapulae, rhomboid major and minor Depression: Lower fibers of trapezius Let me know if I left any out but this should be all of them! Trevor .............................. the above answer is incomplete........ The trapezius is antagonist to itself, in that it can both elevate and depress the scapula
Trapezius - it elevates and depresses the scapula.
