Chapter 11, Problem 1RQ
Summary Introduction

To determine:

The arrangement of a muscle whose fascicles are arranged at an angle to a central longitudinal tendon.

Introduction:

Fascicles are the muscle fiber bundles that together form the muscles of the skeleton system. The skeletal muscles located in different regions of the body have a variable arrangement of the muscle bundles or fascicles. The function and movement of the muscles are dependent on the arrangement of the fascicles.
