Direction of fibers or fascicles - eg. Rectus (fibers run straight), transversus and oblique (fibers run at angles to an imaginary defined axis) and ACTION (eg. flexor or extensor = muscles that flex or extend)
Location (eg. Bone or body region associated with the muscles) and number or origins (eg. biceps = 2 origins, triceps = 3 origins)
All of the above plus location of attachments (named according to point of origin or insertion)

Pregunta 3
Pregunta
What is a circular arrangement of fascicles?
Respuesta
Fascicles arranged in concentric rings (e.g., orbicularis oris)
Fascicles converge toward a single tendon insertion (e.g., pectoralis major)
Fascicles parallel to the long axis of a straplike muscle (e.g., sartorius)
Spindle-shaped muscles with parallel fibers (e.g., biceps brachii)

Pregunta
What is a convergent arrangement of fascicles?
Respuesta
