The notion \u2018muscle\u2019 is expressed predominantly by using small mammals as structural templates. As in the case of English muscle (which is ultimately derived from Latin Musculus \u2018little mouse\u2019), terms for \u2018mouse\u2019 or \u2018rat\u2019 appear to provide the most common source for \u2018muscle\u2019 or \u2018muscular part of the body\u2019, where the latter may refer to such notions as \u2018thigh\u2019, \u2018calf of a leg\u2019, or \u2018biceps\u2019. Other animals such as lizards, rabbits, toads, or calves, are used less frequently that mice and rabbits. <\/dd>\n
