What term any muscle name mean slanted or at an angle?
The term that means "slanted" or "at an angle" in muscle names is "oblique." This term is commonly used in anatomy to describe muscles that are oriented at an angle to the body's midline, such as the external and internal oblique muscles of the abdomen. These muscles play essential roles in trunk rotation and lateral flexion.
What is the function of the obliquus externus?
The obliquus externus, or external oblique muscle, is a key muscle in the abdominal wall. Its primary functions include aiding in the rotation and lateral flexion of the trunk, as well as providing support for the abdominal organs. Additionally, it plays a role in movements such as bending and twisting, and it assists in the processes of forced expiration and stabilizing the pelvis during movement. The muscle also contributes to trunk flexion when acting bilaterally.
What are the five ways the body can move?
The body can move in five primary ways: flexion and extension, which involve bending and straightening joints; abduction and adduction, which refer to moving limbs away from or toward the body’s midline; rotation, which is the turning of a body part around its axis; circumduction, a circular movement that combines flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction; and finally, elevation and depression, which involve raising and lowering body parts. These movements are fundamental to various physical activities and everyday tasks.
