    This document provides a list of muscle terms organized into sections on muscles of the head and neck, eye movement, rotator cuff muscles, muscles of respiration, and muscles of the upper limb. Key terms include myofibers, sarcoplasm, sarcoplasmic reticulum, and various muscle fiber types like parallel, triangular, and pennate fibers. Major muscle groups are also listed along with their actions, such as muscles that move the eyes, lift the eyelids, or rotate the shoulders.
