|---|---|
| musculus ceratopharyngeus | See: middle constrictor muscle of pharynx. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus cervicalis ascendens | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, angles of upper six ribs; insertion, transverse processes of middle cervical vertebrae; action, extends, abducts, and rotates cervical vertebrae; nerve supply, dorsal branches of upper thoracic nerves. Synonym: musculus iliocostalis cervicis, cervical iliocostal muscle, cervicalis ascendens, musculus cervicalis ascendens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus chondroglossus | <anatomy> Muscular fibres from lesser horn of hyoid bone occasionally separated from the hyoglossus, but usually forming part of it. Synonym: musculus chondroglossus, ceratoglossus, keratoglossus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| musculus ciliaris | <anatomy> The smooth muscle of the ciliary body; it consists of circular fibres (Muller's muscle) and radiating fibres (meridional fibres, or Brucke's muscle); action, in contracting, its diameter is reduced (like a sphincter), reducing tensile (stretching) forces on lens, allowing it to thicken for near vision (accommodation). Synonym: musculus ciliaris, Bowman's muscle, ciliary ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus cleido-occipitalis | The portion of the sternocleidomastoid muscle between the clavicle and the superior nuchal line. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus cleidoepitrochlearis | The anterior portion of the deltoid, arising from the clavicle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus cleidomastoideus | The portion of the sternocleidomastoid muscle passing between the clavicle and the mastoid process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus coccygeus | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, spine of ischium and sacrospinous ligament; insertion, sides of lower part of sacrum and upper part of coccyx; action, assists in support of pelvic floor, especially when intra-abdominal pressures increase; nerve supply, third and fourth sacral. Synonym: musculus coccygeus, coccygeal muscle, musculus ischiococcygeus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus complexus | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, transverse processes of five or six upper thoracic and articular processes of four lower cervical vertebrae; insertion, occipital bone between superior and inferior nuchal lines; action, rotates head and draws it backward; nerve supply, dorsal primary rami of cervical spinal nerves. Synonym: musculus semispinalis capitis, musculus complexus, semispinal muscle of head. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus complexus minor | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, from transverse processes of upper thoracic and transverse and articular processes of lower and middle cervical vertebrae; insertion, into mastoid process; action, keeps head erect, draws it backward or to one side; nerve supply, dorsal primary rami of cervical spinal nerves. Synonym: musculus longissimus capitis, musculus complexus minor, musculus trachelomastoideus, musculus transversalis capitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus compressor naris | See: nasalis muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus compressor urethrae | Origin, ramus of pubis; insertion, with fellow in median raphe behind and in front of urethra; action, constricts membranous urethra; nerve supply, pudendal. Synonym: musculus sphincter urethrae, external urethral sphincter, Guthrie's muscle, musculus compressor urethrae, musculus constrictor urethrae, musculus sphincter urethrae membranaceae, sphincter muscle of urethra, Wilson's muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus constrictor pharyngis inferior | Origin, outer surfaces of thyroid (thyropharyngeal part) and cricoid (cricopharyngeal part, musculus cricopharyngeus; superior or upper oesophageal sphincter muscle) cartilages; insertion, pharyngeal raphe in the posterior portion of wall of pharynx; action, narrows lower part of pharynx in swallowing, the cricopharyngeal part has a sphincteric function for the oesophagus, allowing some voluntary control of eructation and reflux; nerve supply, pharyngeal plexus. Synonym: musculus constrictor pharyngis inferior, cricopharyngeus muscle, laryngopharyngeus, musculus laryngopharyngeus. (05 Mar 2000) |
