Evaluate how the name of a muscle can distinguish its location‚ action‚ shape‚ and function. Select five different muscles to make this distinction. Descriptive terms are used to name skeletal muscles. Some names give the location in the body. The temporalis muscle is attached to the temporal bone in the skull. The brachialis muscle is attached to the humerus bone‚ but brachial refers to the main artery in the arm. Some muscles are named for their origins and insertions‚ like the genioglossus

potassium than sodium. When synaptic activity makes the cell less negative‚ the sodium channels open. If the cell voltage goes past a certain level‚ an action potential is produced. Action potentials‚ changes in the membrane potential that happen when a nerve cell membrane is stimulated (Ritchison)‚ happen within milliseconds. After the voltage has reached the threshold potential‚ more voltage-gated sodium channels open and the voltage of the membrane reaches its most positive value. The voltage-gated sodium

Nerve supply is divided into 2 parts Preauricular (nerves entering in front of the ear) and posterior auricular (nerves entering behind the ear). Preauricular * Supratrochlear nerve * Supraorbital nerve * Zygomaticotemporal nerve * Temporal branch of facial nerve * Auriculotemporal nerve Posterior auricular * Great auricular nerve * Posterior auricular nerve * Lesser occipital

posterior tibial nerve. Anatomy: The posterior tibial nerve is a branch of the sciatic nerve and innervates the posterior compartment of the legs. As it continues down the leg‚ it passes posteriorly and inferiorly to the medial malleolus. It ends and branches off into sensory branches that innervate the sole of the foot. The tibial nerve travels through the tarsal tunnel and is covered superiorly by the flexor retinaculum. At this point‚ branches stemming from the tibial nerve innervate the heel

median neuropathy at the wrist due to compression of the median nerve beneath the transverse carpal ligament 2; 3 ; 4. Carpal tunnel syndrome is confirmed by the identification of abnormal median nerve conduction tests across the carpal tunnel. Nerve conduction tests are essential in the confirmation of the diagnosis of suspected cases of CTS. These tests are objective tests that assess the physiological status of the median nerve across the carpal tunnel 5 ; 6. The results of electrodiagnostic
