Question

Match:

Connective tissue sheets that separate muscle blocks

Trunk muscles dorsal of the horizontal skeletogenous septum

Flat and shiny white connective sheets such as the rectus sheath that act as sheetlike tandons for muscle attachment

Muscle action that can be applied to narrowing a space, for instance the gill slits

Muscles that are located deep within the body, forming organs

Trunk muscles ventral of the horizontal skeletogenous septum

Muscles associated with the pharyngeal arches

Muscle action that can be applied to closing a jaw or moving a fin closer to the ventral midline

The connective tissue line between left and right sides of the abdomen, ventrally.

Openings behind the eyes, through which sharks can intake water

Appendicular

Abduction

Visceral

Hypaxials

Nares

Choanae

Spiracles

Obliques

Adduction

Linea alba

Branchiomeric

Epaxials

Aponeuroses

Constriction

Myosepta

Explanation / Answer

1) Connective tissue sheets that separate muscle blocks : Myosepta.

Myomeres are muscle blocks and it is separated by connective tissue sheets called Myosepta.

2) Muscles that are located deep within the body, forming organ : Visceral

Visceral muscles lines the internal organs.

3) Muscles associated with the pharyngeal arches : Branchiomeric

It provides large portion of musculature for face and neck.

4) Openings behind the eyes, through which sharks can intake water : Spiracles

5) Trunk muscles dorsal of the horizontal skeletogenous septum : Epaxials

6) Trunk muscles ventral of the horizontal skeletogenous septum : Hypaxials

7) Muscle action that can be applied to closing a jaw or moving a fin closer to the ventral midline : Abduction

8) The connective tissue line between left and right sides of the abdomen, ventrally. : Linea alba

9) Flat and shiny white connective sheets such as the rectus sheath that act as sheetlike tandons for muscle attachment : Aponeuroses
