1. Functional Implications of Fascicle Arrangement

____________________________________________________________________________________________________. Different fascicle arrangements include:

- ______________________________(e.g., sartorius): Muscles have fascicles running parallel to the long axis, providing extensive range of motion but less power.

- ______________________________(e.g., rectus femoris): Fascicles attach obliquely to a central tendon. This structure allows for greater power but limits range of motion.

- ______________________________(e.g., pectoralis major): Fascicles converge from a broad area to a single tendon, offering versatility in muscle movement.

- ______________________________(e.g., orbicularis oris): Fascicles are arranged in concentric rings, useful for closing openings like the mouth or eyes.

2. Differentiating Muscle Roles

- ____________________________________________________________: The primary muscle responsible for generating a specific movement (e.g., biceps brachii for elbow flexion).

- Antagonist: The muscle that ______________________________the movement of the ______________________________(e.g., triceps brachii for elbow extension).

- Synergist: ______________________________the agonist by providing ______________________________force or ______________________________ unwanted movement (e.g., brachialis assisting the biceps brachii).

- ______________________________: Stabilizes the origin of the agonist, enabling it to function more effectively (e.g., muscles of the shoulder girdle stabilizing the scapula).

3. Locating Axial and Appendicular Muscles

The axial muscles include those located on the __________________________________________________________________________________________, while appendicular muscles are associated with the ______________________________. Use models and diagrams to study the location of these muscles.
