Why is our lower leg called a calf and a baby cow called a calf?

In English, many words have double meanings. Historically, "calf" was documented as referring to the back of the lower leg around the years 1350 and 1425. It comes from the old Norse word "Kalfi." Calf is also used to refer to muscles in the lower leg. Calf was used to refer to the young of cows and some other mammals before the year 900. It comes from W. Gmc "kalam." So, though they come from different countries at different times, the words both were translated into "calf" in the English language.


What if you see a leg hanging out the birth canal of a cow?

Then that calf (and the cow) is in a lot of trouble, and you need to assist that cow right away. The calf needs to be pushed back in in order to get the other leg into the birth canal. The head is probably turned back as well (if the calf is coming front-first), and also needs to be straightened out before you pull out the calf. Of course, pushing a calf back into the uterus is easier said than done!


How do the bones in a chicken's leg move?

Leg muscle means probably the calf muscle, you want to say. Calf muscle is formed by two muscles. They are gastrocnemius muscle and soleus muscle. They have a common tendon. That is tendo calcaneus. Calf muscle move do to stimulation of the nerve supplied to them, that is a tibial nerve. Tibial nerve is a branch of sciatic nerve.
