Describe the attachments of the diaphragm?
The diaphragm has peripheral attachments to structures making up the abdominal and chest walls. These attachments have muscle fibers that converge in the central tendon, forming the crest of the dome.
Explain how the process that causes muscle tiredness can be reversed?
The process that causes muscle tiredness can be reversed because once the muscle starts getting the right products it needs it can start its normal process. This is why when the muscle gets more oxygen it stops cramping.
What is the insertion of the brachioradialis muscle?
Styloid Process of the radius
Is a muscle cell permanent?
No, its not, due to the constant process of muscle cells dying from old age, hits, and other things. They are then replaced through the process of mitosis, or cell replication.
Function of Xiphoid process?
It provides an attachment point for the rectus abdominus muscle.
Is xiphoid process vestigial?
No. It's not vestigial. "The xiphoid process anchors several important muscles, including the abdominal diaphragm, a sheet-like muscle that is necessary for normal breathing. It also anchors the rectus abdominus muscle (the "abs," responsible for the bodybuilder's "sixpack") and the transversus thoracis muscle, located just inside the front of the ribs."
What muscle originates on the pubic crest and pubic symphysis and inserts on thecartilage 6-7 ribs and the xiphoid process?
The rectus abdominis.
What is the main muscle involved with respiration?
The diaphragm is the main muscle of respiration. It is a dome shaped muscle with it's origin at the sternum, xiphoid process, coastal cartilage, 7th to 12th ribs and L2/3. It's insertion is the central tendon.
Describe the attachments of the diaphragm?

What muscle inserts on the olecanon process of the ulna?

Explain how the process that causes muscle tiredness can be reversed?
The process that causes muscle tiredness can be reversed because once the muscle starts getting the right products it needs it can start its normal process. This is why when the muscle gets more oxygen it stops cramping.
What component is not essential for the process of muscle contraction?
Actomyosin does not seem to be essential for the process of muscle contraction. The most important elements of muscle contraction include potassium and ATP.
What muscle is inserted on coronoid process of ulna?
The Coracoid process of the ulna is a triangular projection with a rough surface. The Coracoid process is the insertion site for the brachialis muscle.
Is a sternaclydamastoid a muscle or bone?
muscle from the sternum to the mastoid process, throught the clavicle
Process above the glenoid cavity that permits muscle attachments?
coracoid process
