CHECK FOR UNDERSTANDING
You will answer and rationalize this by yourself. This will be
recorded as your quiz. One (1) point will be given to the
correct answer and another one (1) point for the correct ratio.
Superimpositions or erasures in your answer/ratio is not
allowed. You are given 20 minutes for this activity.
Multiple Choice
1. The insertion of the gluteus maximus is the:
a. sacrum
b. tibia
c. ilium
d. calcaneus
e. femur
ANSWER: E
RATIO: The gluteus maximus is the most superficial gluteal
muscle that forms the prominence of the gluteal region.
Along with the gluteus medius, gluteus minimus and tensorfasciae latae, it belongs to the gluteal group of the hip
muscles. Gluteus maximus extends from the pelvis to the
gluteal tuberosity of femur.
2. Which of the following muscles closes the jaw?
a. the buccinator
b. the masseter
c. the frontalis
d. the sternocleidomastoid
e. the masseter and the temporalis
ANSWER: E
RATIO: The masseter muscle is one of four muscles of
mastication and has the primary role of closing the jaw in
conjunction with two other jaw closing muscles, the
temporalis and medial pterygoid muscles.
3. Pepper is playing the piano for her recital. Which muscle is
not involved in the movement of her hands and/or fingers?
a. flexor carpi radialis
b. flexor carpi ulnaris
c. extensor digitorum
d. tensor fasciae latae
ANSWER: D
RATIO: The Tensor fascia latae (TFL) is a fusiform muscle
enclosed between two layers of fascia lata with a length of
15cm approximately and overlying the gluteus minimus and
some part of the gluteus medius.
4. Which of the following compress the abdomen? (Select all
that apply)
a. internal oblique
b. external obliquec. transversus abdominis
d. latissimus dorsi
e. rectus abdominis
ANSWER: A, B, C, E
RATIO: All aforementioned are correct regarding in
compressing the abdomen except the latissimus dorsi
5. Anursing infant develops a powerful sucking muscle that
adults also use for whistling or blowing a trumpet called the:
a. levator labii superioris
b. masseter
c. zygomaticus
d. buccinator
e. temporalis
ANSWER: D
RATIO: The buccinator muscle plays an active role along with
orbicularis oris and superior constrictor muscle during
swallowing, mastication, blowing, and sucking. It aids in
mastication and blowing by compressing the inwards.
6. A muscle group that works with and assists the action of a
prime mover is a(n):
a. antagonist only
b. fixator only
c. synergist only
d. agonist and synergist
e. antagonist and fixator
ANSWER: C
RATIO: A muscle group that works with and assists the action
of aprime mover is a synergist
7. Which one of the following is the action of the orbicularisoris?
a. closes, purses, and protrudes the lips
b. pulls the lower lip down and back
c. draws the eyebrows together
d. allows blinking, squinting, and various other protective
mechanisms for the eye
e. closes the jaw
ANSWER: A
RATIO: Just like the other muscles of the buccolabial group,
the function of orbicularis oris is to control the shape and
movements of the lips. It closes, protrudes and compresses
the lips.
8. Paralysis of which of the following would make an
individual unable to flex the thigh:
a. biceps femoris
b. vastus medialis
c. vastus lateralis
d. vastus intermedius
e. iliopsoas and rectus femoris
ANSWER: E
RATIO: Rectus Femoris acts with iliopsoas to produce hip
flexion especially if the knee is flexed. During gait, as a hip
flexor, it acts with the iliopsoas in "Toe off" phase
9. Which of the following muscles are antagonists?
a. biceps brachii and triceps brachii
b. biceps femoris and biceps brachii
c. vastus medialis and vastus lateralis
d. masseter and temporalis
e. gastrocnemius and soleus
ANSWER: ARATIO: The Triceps brachii is the great extensor muscle of the
forearm, and is the direct antagonist of the Biceps brachii and
Brachialis. When the arm is extended, the long head of the
muscle may assist the Teres major and Latissimus dorsi in
drawing the humerus backward and in adducting it to the
thorax.
10. Pepper is trying to memorize the anatomical structures of
skeletal muscles for their practical examination. She
understands that the nomenclature of these muscles is based
on: (Select all that apply)
a. method of attachment of the muscle to bone
b. relative size of the muscle
c. number of origins of the muscle
d. shape of the muscle
e. action of the muscle
ANSWER: B, C, D, E
RATIO: Anatomists name the skeletal muscles according to a
number of criteria, each of which describes the muscle in
some way. These include naming the muscle after its shape,
size, fiber direction, location, number of origins or its action.
The names of some muscles reflect their shape.
