Why is the serratus anterior in humans called the serratus ventralis in cats?
The serratus anterior muscle in humans and the serratus ventralis muscle in cats are functionally equivalent but have different names due to anatomical differences and the naming conventions in comparative anatomy. The term "serratus" refers to the serrated or saw-like appearance of the muscle, while "anterior" and "ventralis" indicate their positions in the respective species.
What are the differences between the serratus anterior and obliques muscles in terms of their functions and anatomical locations?

What are the antagonists of the rhomboids?
The main antagonists of the rhomboid muscles are the serratus anterior and pectoralis minor. These muscles work in opposition to the rhomboids to perform movements like protraction and downward rotation of the scapula. Strengthening these antagonist muscles can help maintain shoulder stability and balance in the upper body.
