    List seven different criteria for naming muscles. Give an example for each. DO NOT use
    the exact same example listed in Martini.

    1. Direction of muscle fibers Oblique (angle)

    2. Size of muscle Longus-longest

    3. location of muscle frontalis (frontal)

    4. Number of origins quadriceps-four

    5. location or origin and insertion sternocleidomastoid.

    6. Shape of the muscle deltoid triangular

    7. action of the muscle adductor.

    Short answer:

    1. Explain why thin skin is also called hairy skin and why thick skin is also called hairless

    skin.

    Skin with hair is often called thin skin because its epidermal thickness is only 0.10-0.15 mm.

    The epidermis lacks a transparent layer, and both the spinous process layer and the stratum

    corneum are very thin.

    The epidermal ridge is also lacking due to the poorly defined dermal papilla. The skin

    thickness of hairy skin is 1-2 mm. In this layer, there are sebaceous glands, but sweat glands

    and sensory receptors are sparsely distributed.

    2. Explain why no skin cancers originate from stratum corneum cells.

    They are dead and therefor they cannot divide.

    3. What type of tissue(s) form each of the following structures? a. dermis, b.epidermis, c.

    hypodermis.

    The skin is composed of two main layers: the epidermis, which is composed of tightly

    packed epithelial cells, and the dermis, which is composed of dense, irregular connective

    tissue that houses blood vessels, hair follicles, sweat glands, and other structures. Below the

    dermis is the subcutaneous tissue, which is mainly composed of loose connective tissue and

    adipose tissue.

    4. Describe the role of calcium in muscle contraction.


    Human Anatomy
    Tiffany
    The role of calcium is to bind with troponin, this changes the shape so that the actin filament

    is exposed.

    5. Compare and contrast skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle tissue.

    Cardiac and skeletal muscle are both striated in appearance, while smooth muscle is not. Both

    cardiac and smooth muscle are involuntary while skeletal muscle is voluntary.
