The muscular

PART A
1
Interactions of Skeletal Muscles
Skeletal muscles work together or in
opposition
Muscles only pull (never push)
As muscles shorten, the insertion
generally moves toward the origin
Whatever a muscle (or group of
muscles) does, another muscle (or
group) “undoes

Muscle Classification: Functional
Groups
Prime movers – provide the major force
for producing a specific movement
Antagonists – oppose or reverse a
particular movement
Synergists
Add force to a movement
Reduce undesirable or unnecessary
movement
3
Muscle Classification: Functional
Groups
Fixators – synergists that immobilize a
bone or muscle’s origin
