DETAIL:

DESCRIPTION:
Anterior view of the major skeletal muscles. The muscles are
best learned by functional groups (e.g., the adductors, the
quadriceps, the flexors, etc.). There are two types of striated
muscle: cardiac and skeletal. Within striated muscle cells are
elaborate mechanisms that make movement possible. The mechanism
by which a muscle fiber, or cell, contracts depends on
comb-shaped arrays of muscle filaments. When properly stimulated
by nerve impulses, the filaments interact and slide along each
other, causing the muscle cell to shorten or contract. The
regular arrangement of the filaments in the muscle cell is
responsible for its microscopic appearance and its name,
striated muscle.
See also posterior view of major skeletal
muscles.
