Flexes and adducts arm at the shoulder along with pectoralis major?
The Coracobrachialis
Is brachialis a muscle in the arm?
The brachialis is a muscle in the upper arm that flexes the elbow joint.
What is the action of the coracobrachialis?
It contributes to adduction, horizontal adduction, and flexion of the humerus, enabling the arm to swing forwards, and it is a synergist of the pectoralis minor.
What 4 muscles are used to prevent movement of a broken clavicle?
There are actually more than 4 muscles that should be immobilized. When you move your shoulders you move your clavicle. The muscles that causes movement at the shoulder joint should be immobilized. This includes the prime movers, as well as the assistant movers. The following muscles should be immobile. The subclavius which moves and depresses the clavicle as well as helps stabilize the pectoral girdle. The pectoralis minorabduct the scapula and rotates it downward, lowering your shoulders. The serratus anterior abducts the scapula and cause it to rotate upward, shrugging your shoulders. The trapezius stabilizes the scapula as well as move it, and helps extend head. The levator scapulae elevates the scapula and rotates it downward. The rhomboid majorelevates, adducts, rotates downward, and stabilizes the scapula. The Rhomboid minor does the same thing as the Rhomboid major. The pectoralis major adducts and medially rotates the arm at the shoulder joint; flexes arm at the clavicular head and extends the arm to the side of the trunk at the sternocostal head. The deltoid abducts the arm at the shoulder joint; flex and medially rotates the arm at shoulder joint; and extend and laterally rotates the arm at shoulder joint. The subscapularis medially rotates the arm at shoulder joint. The supraspinatus assists the deltoid muscle to abduct the arm at the should joint. The infraspinatuslaterally rotates and abducts the arm at the shoulder joint. The teres major extends the arm at the shoulder joint and assists in the adduction and medial rotation of the arm at the shoulder joint. The teres minor laterally rotates, extends, and adducts the arm at the shoulder joint. The coracobrachialis flexes and adducts the arm at the should joint.
What is thwe muscle found in the chest that adducts the arm?
The pectorals major
What would be the antagonist to the muscle that flexes the arm would be a muscle that?
Looks like you are looking for the antagonistic pair. The muscular group that flexes the arm would be the antagonistic pair of tricep brachi and the brachialis.
What muscle of the arm and forearm weakly flexes hand?
Palmaris Longus
What do the shoulder muscles do?
the shoulder muscle extends the arm
The large muscle of the upper chest that flexes the arm across the body is the?
Pectoralis major
Which is the main muscle that flexes the forearm?
The biceps brachii is the prime flexor of the arm.
Is deltoid a arm?
No, it is the shoulder muscle.
Which muscles flex the arm?
the anterior part of the deltoid muscle flexes and medially rotates the humerus/ the arm. to do this it is helped by muscles like coracobrachialis and pectoralis major, corachobrachialis also adduct and flex the arm at shoulder joint.
