Composite muscles and digastric muscles.

Posted by on September 16, 2010 Leave a comment (3) Go to comments

Composite muscles are those muscles which have more than one innervation.

1.Adductor Magnus

2.Biceps femoris

3.Pectineus

4.Quadriceps femoris

REMEMBER:RECTUS FEMORIS IS NOT A COMPOSITE MUSCLE.

Do not confuse with Digastric muscles, which have two bellies

1.Digastric

2.Omohyoid

3.Occipitofrontalis

4.Ligament of trietz

Sternocleidomastoid has two heads not 2 bellies.
