Muscular system Discussion
Muscular system Discussion
Welcome to the muscular system discussion board. The muscular system is important to know for our patients when treating an injury or giving an injection. We need to know them on ourselves to prevent overuse and injury.

You must also submit your post to Turnitin for grading (located just below this discussion in the course)
Only posts submitted to Turnitin that have passed an originality check (less than 30% similarity) will be graded.
For this discussion board, I would like everyone to choose one muscle and give:
the origin,
insertion
action(s)
an injury that might be seen to this muscle.
You must choose a muscle that has not been already posted; there are over 300 skeletal muscle pairs so it shouldn’t be difficult to find a muscle that has not yet been discussed.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
