The posterior scalene, (Latin: scalenus posterior) is the smallest and most deeply seated of the scalene muscles. It arises, by two or three separate tendons, from the posterior tubercles of the transverse processes of the lower two or three cervical vertebrae, and is inserted by a thin tendon into the outer surface of the second rib, behind ...
Scalenus: originates on the cranial and lateral side of the first rib, inserts into the transverse process of the cervical vertebrae (C4-C7). Semispinalis capitis: originates on the cervical vertebrae and first 6-7 thoracic vertebrae. Inserts on the occipital bone, ventral to the nuchal crest.
The long thoracic nerve arises from the anterior rami of cervical spinal nerves C5, C6, and C7. [1] [2] [3] The root from C7 may occasionally be absent. [4]The roots from C5 and C6 pierce through the scalenus medius, while the C7 root passes in front of the muscle.

The term "artery" is included to avoid confusing columns. Nerve The nerve(s) which tell the muscle to act (innervates the muscle). The term "nerve" is included for clarity. Action
Origin Insertion Innervation Sternohyoid: Posterior surface of manubrium sterni, adjoining parts of clavicle and the posterior sternoclavicular ligament: Medial part of lower border of hyoid bone: Ansa cervicalis: Sternothyroid: Posterior surface of manubrium sterni and adjoining part of first costal cartilage: Oblique line of thyroid cartilage ...
A figure of speech or rhetorical figure is a word or phrase that intentionally deviates from straightforward language use or literal meaning to produce a rhetorical or intensified effect (emotionally, aesthetically, intellectually, etc.).

The caudofemoralis originates from the transverse processes of the second, third and fourth caudal vertebrae.The caudodistal portion of the muscle in mammals lies deep to the proximocranial portion of the Biceps femoris; near the middle of the thigh, the caudofemoralis gives rise to a long, thin, and narrow tendon that passes distally to the knee joint and inserts into the fascia lata that is ...
