- 3. / muscle that separates the chest (thoracic) cavity from the abdomen, is the main muscle of respiration,
- 6. / front, side, and rear of the shoulder
- 8. / the division of the quadriceps muscle that covers the outer anterior aspect of the femur

- 18. / each of a pair of long muscles that connect the sternum, clavicle, and mastoid process of the temporal bone and serve to turn and nod the head
- 19. / located in the walls of internal organs, movement is involuntary, non striated (no markings), controlled by the autonomic nervous system

- 35. / is the largest and the most superficial of the three flat muscles of the lateral anterior abdomen
- 37. / attached to the bones, require conscious effort to function (voluntary control), referred to as striated because they have alternating light and dark bands circulating the muscle fibers
