The origins of muscles involved in muscle insertion are where the muscles begin and attach to bones or other structures. The functions of these muscles are to generate force and movement by contracting and pulling on their insertion points.
Yes, the sternocleidomastoid muscle is named for its origins on the sternum (sterno-) and clavicle (cleido-) and its insertion on the mastoid process of the temporal bone.
The hamstring muscles originate from the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis and insert on the tibia and fibula bones of the lower leg.
The Miller-Urey experiment is not definitive proof of the origins of life. It provided important insights into how simple organic molecules could have formed on early Earth, but it does not fully explain the complex processes involved in the origin of life.
The neck muscle is the muscle that pulls the head to the chest. This muscle is very important because, without it, the head would also not be able to move side to side or up.

The origin is the immovable end, while insertion is the movable end.Some muscles have more than one origin, like the biceps brachii. The insertion of the biceps brachii is attached to the radius of your forearm while the origins are located on your scapula.

Biceps and triceps
Biceps brachii - in the arm * short head - coracoid process of the scapula (shoulder blade) * long head - supraglenoid tubercle of the humerus Biceps femoris - in the leg (one of the hamstrings) * tuberosity of the ischium (part of the pelvis) * linea aspera of the femur
THE ORIGIN OF THE TEMPORALIS MUSCLE IS TEMPORAL FOSSA Insertion: Coronid process of the mandible Function/Action: Closes Jaw
Yes, the sternocleidomastoid muscle is named for its origins on the sternum (sterno-) and clavicle (cleido-) and its insertion on the mastoid process of the temporal bone.
The hamstring muscles originate from the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis and insert on the tibia and fibula bones of the lower leg.
1. Direction of the muscle fibers - Muscles named for the directional relationship with imaginary midline division of the body. EX: rectus femoris is the straight muscle of the thigh.2. Relative size of the muscle - Large (maximus), small (minimus), and length (longus) terms are used to describe the muscle's size relative to those around it. EX: gluteus maximus.3. Location of the muscle - Muscles can be named for the bone with which they are associated. EX: the temporalis muscle lays over the temporal bone of the skull.4. Number of origins - The number of origins (starting points) a muscle has determines its name. EX: a Bicep has TWO points of origin.5. Location of the muscle's origin and insertion - Named for its starting point(s) [origin] and its ending [insertion] point. EX: The sternocleidomastoid has origins in the sternumand clavicle and is ended, or inserted, on the mastoid process of the temporal bone.6. Shape of the muscle - Named for a distinct shape. EX: The deltoid is a rough triangular shape. [Deltoid = Triangle in Latin]7. Action of the muscle - Terms like, flexor, extensor, and adductor are used to name muscles based on their movement. EX: Extensor muscles of the wrist extend the wrist.
Criteria used to name the muscle, transverse abdomis was 1. Direction of the muscle fibers 2. Relative size of the muscle to the muscles around it 3. Location of the muscle 4. Number of origins 5. Location of the muscle's origin and insertion 6. Shape of the muscle 7. Action of the muscle
The Longissimus group includes the thoracis, cervicis and capitis.The thoracis' origins are the lumbar vertebrae and its' insertion is the all the traverse processes of the cervical vertebrae.The cervicis' origins are the upper 4 or 5th thoracic vertebrae and they insert onto the 2nd - 6th cervical vertebrae.Lastly, the capitis' origins are the upper 4th or 5th thoracic vertebra and the insertion is on the mastoid process.In short:origin: transverse processesinsertion: transverse processes several levels above (including one on the mastoid process)Action: to extend the spineInnervation: posterior primary rami
The classification of muscles are based on five factors and they are location, neural control, anatomy, output, and typical activity. Examples of muscles include skeletal muscles, involuntary muscles, and normally relaxed muscles.
