Summary Introduction
To review:
Match the term gastrocnemius with the most closely related description given below:
abducts the toes
flexes hip and/or lumbar spine
adduct (retract) scapula
connective tissue bands
plantar flexion at ankle
originates on ilium
flexes elbow
dorsiflexes ankle and inverts foot
lateral rotation of humerus at shoulder
supinates forearm
extends, adducts, medially rotates humerus at shoulder
Introduction:
The large gastrocnemius and the soleus ate the foot’s plantar flexor. The soleus acts synergistically to the gastrocnemius and it increases the speed and the force of the plantar flexion.

7. During a swallow, why does...a) the soft palate flip up?b) the epiglottis flip down?c) the hyoid get pulled forward and upward?(that is, explain the function of these movements, not the muscles that make them happen; also, please answer each question in a single sentence.)
Mark invited Kenny to play in his member-guest golf tournament at his new country club. The tournament consisted of an 18-hole practice round on Thursday, 27 holes on Friday, and 27 holes on Saturday. The temperature reached 97 degrees all three days. Mark woke up Friday night with cramps in his gastrocnemius. What could be the cause of these cramps and how could they have been prevented? Kenny did not fare much better...on Saturday afternoon, he stepped into a hole off of the fairway and twisted his ankle. He finished the round, but on Sunday, the ankle was quite swollen and he could barely walk. He also was having severe back spasms. He made a trip to Urgent Care and was diagnosed with a sprained ankle and a strained back. How does a sprain differ from a strain? How is a sprain/strain often treated (Hint: PRICE)? What are some things a person can do to help prevent back injuries?
The doctors venosus connects the left portal vein to .............?
