#1
occipitofrontalis

#2
orbicularis oculi
origin: medial wall of orbit
insertion: circular path around orbit
action: closes eye

#3
zygomaticus minor
origin: zygomatic bone
insertion: skin of upper lip
action: raises upper lip, exposing upper teeth

#4
zygomaticus major
origin: zygomatic bone
insertion: skin at corner of mouth and orbicularis oris
action: draws angle of mouth superiorly and laterally (smiling)

#5
masseter
origin: maxilla and zygomatic arch
insertion: angle and ramus of mandible
action: elevates mandible, as in closing mouth

#6
orbicularis oris
origin: muscle fibers surrounding opening of mouth
insertion: skin at corner of the mouth
action: closes and protrudes lips (kissing), compresses lips against teeth, and shapes lips during speech

#7
sternocleidomastoid
origin: sternum and clavicle
insertion: mastoid process of temporal bone
action: bilateral (flex the cervical portion of the vertebral column), unilateral (rotates the head to the opposite side and laterally flexes the neck to the same side

#8
trapezius
origin: occipital bone, nuchal ligament, spinous processes of C7 - T12
insertion: clavicle, acromion and spine of scapula
action: superior (elevates scapula), middle (abduct scapula), inferior (depress scapula), reverse muscle action (extends head at next when scapula is stabilized)

#9
latissimus dorsi
origin: spinous processes of T7 - L5 vertebrae, sacrum, iliac crest
insertion: intertubercular sulcus of humerus
action: extends, adducts, and medially rotates arm at shoulder, reverse muscle action (elevates vertebral column when humerus is strabilized)

#11
pectoralis major
origin: clavicle, sternum, and costal cartilages of ribs 2-6
insertion: greater tubercle of humerus
action: flexes, adducts, and medially rotates arm at shoulder

#18

origin: pubis and pubic symphysis
insertion: cartilage of ribs 5-7 and xiphoid process
action: flexes vertebral column; compresses abdomen

#19
external oblique
origin: ribs 5-12
insertion: iliac crest of ilium, pubis, and linea alba
action: bilateral (flexes vertebral column; compresses abdomen), unilateral (laterally flexes and rotates vertebral column)

#10
deltoid
origin: clavicle, acromion and spine of scapula
insertion: deltoid tuberosity of humerus
action: anterior fibers (flex and medially rotate arm at shoulder), middle fibers (abduct arm at shoulder), posterior fibers (extend and laterally rotate arm at shoulder)

#12
biceps brachii
origin: long head (supraglenoid tubercle of scapula), short head (coracoid process)
insertion: radial tuberosity of radius and bicipital aponeurosis
action: flexes forearm at elbow, supinates forearm at radioulnar joints and flexes arm at shoulder

#17
subscapularis
origin: subscapular fossa of scapula
insertion: lesser tubercle of humerus
action: medially rotates arm at shoulder

#13
triceps brachii
origin: long head (scapula), lateral head (lateral and posterior surface of humerus), medial head (posterior surface of humerus)
insertion: olecranon of ulna
action: extends forearm at elbow and extends arm at shoulder

#14
supraspinatus
origin: supraspinatus fossa of scapula
insertion: greater tubercle of umerus
action: assists deltoid in abducting arm at shoulder

#15
infraspinatus
origin: infraspinatus fossa of scapula
insertion: greater tubercle of humerus
action: laterally rotates arm at shoulder

#16
