gluteal group

Examples of gluteal group in the following topics:

• Muscles that Cause Movement at the Hip Joint

  • The four main groups of hip muscles are gluteal, adductor, iliopsoas, and lateral rotator, defined by the type of movement they mediate.
  • Muscles in the gluteal group are superficially located and act mainly to abduct and extend the thigh at the hip.
  • Gluteus Maximus - The gluteus maximus is the largest of the gluteal muscles and gives structure to the buttocks.
  • Gluteus Minimus - The gluteus minimus is the deepest and smallest of the superficial gluteal muscles and performs a similar function to the gluteus medius.
  • The iliacus and psoas major comprise the iliopsoas group.

• Arteries of the Pelvis and Lower Limbs

  • The anterior trunk gives rise to numerous arteries which supply the organs of the pelvis and the gluteal and adductor muscles of the leg.
  • Key branches include the obturator artery, the inferior vesical artery in men and the equivalent vaginal artery in females and the rectal and gluteal arteries.
  • The posterior trunk gives rise to arteries that supply the posterior pelvic wall and the gluteal region including the iliolumbar artery which supplies the psoas major muscle, the lateral sacral arteries and the superior gluteal artery.

• Ilium

  • The external surface is smooth and divided by three lines the posterior, anterior and inferior gluteal lines.
  • The gluteus maximus originates from the external surface adjacent to the posterior gluteal line, the gluteus medius from adjacent to the anterior line and the gluteus minimus from the inferior line.

• Femur (The Thigh)

  • Two key features of the shaft are the proximal gluteal tuberosity to which the gluteus maximus attaches and the distal adductor tubercle to which the adductor magnus attaches.

• Sciatic Nerve Injury

  • Left gluteal region, showing surface markings for arteries and the sciatic nerve

• Functional Groups

  • Functional groups are atoms or small groups of atoms (two to four) that exhibit a characteristic reactivity when treated with certain reagents.
  • A particular functional group will almost always display its characteristic chemical behavior when it is present in a compound.
  • Because of their importance in understanding organic chemistry, functional groups have characteristic names that often carry over in the naming of individual compounds incorporating specific groups.
  • In the following table the atoms of each functional group are colored red and the characteristic IUPAC nomenclature suffix that denotes some (but not all) functional groups is also colored.

• Secondary Groups

  • Secondary groups are large groups whose relationships are impersonal and goal oriented; their relationships are temporary.
  • Unlike first groups, secondary groups are large groups whose relationships are impersonal and goal oriented.
  • In contrast to primary groups, secondary groups don't have the goal of maintaining and developing the relationships themselves.
  • He labeled groups as "primary" because people often experience such groups early in their life and such groups play an important role in the development of personal identity.
  • Primary groups can form within secondary groups as relationships become more personal and close.

• Primary and Secondary Groups

  • A Primary group is typically a small social group whose members share close, personal, enduring relationships.
  • Families and close friends are examples of primary groups
  • Secondary groups are large groups whose relationships are impersonal and goal-oriented.
  • People in a secondary group interact on a less personal level than in a primary group.
  • He labeled groups as "primary" because people often experience such groups early in their life and such groups play an important role in the development of personal identity.

• Primary Groups

  • A primary group is typically a small social group whose members share close, personal, enduring relationships.
  • A primary group is a group in which one exchanges implicit items, such as love, caring, concern, support, etc.
  • Examples of these would be family groups, love relationships, crisis support groups, and church groups.
  • A primary group is typically a small social group whose members share close, personal, enduring relationships.
  • Examples of these would be family groups, love relationships, crisis support groups, and church groups.

• Reference Groups

  • Reference groups are groups that consumers will look to for help in making purchasing decisions.
  • Reference groups are groups that consumers compare themselves to or associate with.
  • On the other hand, if a reference group disapproves of a product, those that associate with that group will probably not purchase the product.
  • Reference groups can be either formal or informal.
  • In the consumer world, this means that if a reference group purchases a product, those that associate with the group likely will as well.
