The quadriceps perform knee extension, however, the rectus femoris, which is one of the 4 muscles of the quadriceps, also does hip flexion.
Triceps muscle is not a flexor. Triceps is an extensor of elbow joint. Biceps muscle is flexor.
No. The biceps are a flexor muscle.
Extensor muscles open a joint and are the opposite to flexor muscles, which close it. I imagine triceps are extensor, while biceps are flexor.
The triceps are extensor muscles.
What you are talking about is flexor muscle and not extensor aren't you?
The muscles of the legs do not follow the generalization that extensor muscles are on the posterior and flexor muscles are on the anterior.
The flexor muscles are found in the quadriceps as well as the sartorius, iliopsoas, psoas minor, and the pectineus muscles. The rectus femoris is the primary flexor muscle of the quadriceps. The extensor muscles are found in the hamstrings and the gluteus maximus.
Extensor. It will extend the neck and adduct the scapula.

Extensor
An exception to this generalization is the extensor-flexor musculature of the forearm. In this region, the extensor muscles primarily control extension of the wrist and fingers, while the flexor muscles primarily control flexion. This muscle group plays a crucial role in intricate hand movements and grip strength.
