Answers
Answer:
Superior rectus, Inferior rectus, Medial rectus, Lateral rectus, Superior oblique, Inferior oblique.
Superior rectus, Inferior rectus, Medial rectus, Lateral rectus, Superior oblique, and Inferior oblique.
Superior rectus: The Superior rectus belongs to a group called the extraocular muscles. This group of muscles serves to move the eyes within the orbit.
Inferior rectus: The inferior rectus muscle moves the eyeball downward. It also moves the eye inward towards the nose and rotates the top of the eye away from the nose.
Medial rectus: This muscle shares an origin with several other extrinsic eye muscles, the anulus tendineus, or common tendon.
Lateral rectus: The lateral rectus muscle is responsible for lateral movement of the eyeball, specifically abduction.
Superior oblique: The superior oblique abducts, depresses and internally rotates the eye.
Inferior oblique: The inferior oblique is named by its position within the orbit, relative to the eyeball.
