So a good example of that would be the biceps brachii So, fusiform looks like that. There are some muscles that have tapered ends. So, a good example of that would be the biceps brachii. It’s a fusiform type shape. So here is the biceps brachii. Notice that it has a tapered end here and here, here and here. All right, the ends of the muscle come together. All right, another arrangement is what we call convergent.

Description: Author: Mike Shikwambana. The latissimus dorsi muscles is a flat triangular shaped muscle which is located on the first layer of our muscles on the back inferior to Trapezius. Its origin is the spinous processes (T6-T12), the iliac crest and the thoracolumbar fascia.Its insertion is on the intertubercular sulcus of the humerus.uthor: Mike Shikwambana.

Sternocleidomastoid Trigger Points Referred Pain and Symptoms and Causes The sternocleidomastoid (SCM) is a muscle of the neck so-named because it originates on the sternum (sterno) and the clavicle (cleido) and inserts on the mastoid process 1 (mastoid) which is an easily located bony prominence behind the ear.

- Connective Tissue Coverings. An individual skeletal muscle is separated from adjacent muscles and held in position by layers of dense connective tissue called fascia (fash'e-ah). This connective tissue surrounds each muscle and may project beyond the end of its muscle fibers to form a cordlike tendon.hese sections contain bundles of skeletal muscle fibers called fascicles (fasciculi). Each muscle fiber within a fascicle (fasciculus) lies within a layer of connective tissue in the form of a thin covering called endomysium (figs. 9.2 and 9.3).

- Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this session, the student will be able to: Identify and list the attachments, innervation and action of the sternocleidomastoid, digastric and infrahyoid (strap) muscles. Identify the boundaries of the anterior and posterior cervical triangles and their subdivisions. Describe the cutaneous branches of the cervical plexus and identify their areas of distribution. Identify the deep cervical fascia, its various component layers and the resulting compartmentalization of the neck.

- A skeletal muscle is composed of a variety of tissues, including layers of connective tissue.

Chapter six skeletal system The sternocleidomastoid muscle extends from the mastoid process of the temporal bone to the sternum and medial clavicle. When both sternocleidomastoid muscles contract, the head is flexed. The end of the muscle that connects to the sternum is the. origin.

Myofibril In striated muscle, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle, the actin and myosin filaments each have a specific and constant length on the order of a few micrometers, far less than the length of the elongated muscle cell (a few millimeters in the case of human skeletal muscle cells).hese proteins are organized into thick and thin filaments called myofilaments, which repeat along the length of the myofibril in sections called sarcomeres. Muscles contract by sliding the thick (myosin) and thin (actin) filaments along each other.

Sternocleidomastoid The sternocleidomastoid muscle flexes the neck and helps with movement of the head. Also, the muscle works with the scalene muscles in the neck during forced inspiration while breathing (inhaling), and it raises the sternum, the bone at the front of the rib cage.t inserts into the temporal bone's mastoid process near the ear and the base of the skull, and it stretches the entire length of the neck. This muscle helps the neck to turn to the side, flex to the side, and bend forward. Two nerves serve the sternocleidomastoid muscle.

Sternocleidomastoid Trigger Points: Masters of the Migraine The sternocleidomastoid (SCM) is one of my favorite muscle groups to work with, mainly because the results can be simply extraordinary. Trigger point activity in this muscle can cause a bewilderingly set of symptoms, with many being confusingly similar to the symptoms associated with the common (no aura) migraine headache.

Clinically Relevant Anatomy The SC joint is a plane synovial joint formed by the articulation of the sternum and the clavicle. Due to the joint’s articulation between the medial clavicle and the manubrium of the sternum and first costal cartilage, the joint has little bony stability. Between the medial clavicle and the manubrium is a dense fibrocartilaginous disc that separates the joints into two distinct synovial compartments.

Structural Biochemistry/Cell Signaling Pathways/Muscular System SMOOTH MUSCLE - STRUCTURE. Smooth muscle (shown below) is made up of fusiform (diamond-shaped) cells with a single nucleus. The cells are arranged in sheets and contain three filament types: a) actin filaments with no troponin and tropomyosin (5 - 8 times more actin than skeletal muscle).

Description In congenital torticollis, the muscle that extends down the side of the neck-the sternocleidomastoid muscle -- is tight and shortened. For most babies, stretching exercises and simple changes in how the infant is held or positioned will gradually lengthen the muscle and correct the problem.

Sternocleidomastoid Trigger Points Referred Pain and Symptoms and Causes Trigger points in the sternocleidomastoid can be activated by a tight or tense pectoralis major muscle as the clavicular head of the pec major pulls down on and forward on the clavicle which puts tension on the clavicular branch of the SCM.he SCM may become tight and cause painful stiffness in the neck forcing the head to tilt to one side. This may indicate the presence of trigger points, which may be responsible for frequent headaches or ear pain (mistaken for an ear infection).

Sternocleidomastoid Muscle Sternocleidomastoid Muscle. The sternocleidomastoid is a long muscle in the side of the neck that extends up from the thorax to the base of the skull behind the ear. When the sternocleidomastoid on one side contracts, the face is turned to the opposite side. When both muscles contract, the head is bent toward the chest.

Muscle architecture Due to the shape, the force produced by fusiform muscles is concentrated into a small area. An example of this architecture type is the biceps brachii in humans. Fan-shaped. The fibers in fan-shaped muscles converge at one end (typically at a tendon) and spread over a broad area at the other end.
