1 Muscles of the Human Body over 600 in the human body allow the skeleton to move to cause movement both ends of each muscle must be attached to bone origin or proximal attachment ( the attachment closer to the centre of the body) insertion or distal attachment (the attachment away from the centre of the body) Various functions of the facial muscles Facial Muscles - enable you to change expression and display your emotions outwardly - allow you to close your eyes and blink - essential for opening and closing the mouth for: - keeping food in the mouth - allowing you to chew - allowing you to form words Tongue - function allows you move food around in your mouth and get it to a position to be swallowed allows you to pronounce words and speak intelligibly Neck Muscles There are muscles posterior, lateral and anterior to the neck or cervical region These muscles: st - maintain the position in which the head sits on the 1 cervical vertebra (atlas) (ie. they hold up our head) - also permit a wide range of movement A. Sternocleidomastoids (the most important anterior pair of muscles) Proximal - Medial Head (upper part of ant. surface of manubrium) rd Lateral Head (medial 3 of clavicle) Distal - mastoid process Function - flex the head towards the chest - individually, each muscle tilts the face up and toward the opposite side.

2 B. Erector Spinae Muscles (important posterior neck muscles) Proximal - base of skull Distal - sacrum Function - maintain your erect postition - therefore, also called anti-gravity muscles - when someone faints, these muscles no longer function and the body falls face forward to the ground Muscular System - Upper Limb Muscles of Scapular Stabilization (Posterior) C.
