∙ 14y agoIt depends which movement you are talking about. There are several muscles that move the arm via the humerus. The deltoid is the major abductor of the arm, but also plays a role in arm extension and flexion. Other muscles moving the humerus include the latissimus dorsi, teres major, pectoralis major and minor, biceps brachii, and triceps brachii.

What muscles adduct the arm?
The pectoralis major, teres major, lastissimus dorsi, and the carica adduct and medially, or internally, rotate the humerus.
What muscles abducts the humerus?
The major muscle that abducts the humerus is the Deltoid. (all muscles move in conjuction, there may be more muscles that contribute to the abduction of the humerus) pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi
Which structure does the radius rotate upon?
humerus
What muscles are involved in lateral rotation of the humerus?
The rotator cuff muscles: Supraspinatus Infraspinatus Teres Minor Supscapularis Easily remembered as SITS.
What abducts the humerus?
The major muscle that abducts the humerus is the Deltoid. (all muscles move in conjuction, there may be more muscles that contribute to the abduction of the humerus) pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi
The flexor and pronator muscles originate on the?
humerus
How many muscles attach to the lesser tubercle of the humerus?
2
The extrinsic muscles of the hand orignate on the?
lateral epicondyle of the humerus
What muscle originates on the anterior surface of the scapula and inserts on the proximal anterior humerus?
The subscapularis muscle originates on the anterior surface of the scapula and inserts on the proximal anterior humerus. Its function is to rotate the head of the humerus medially.
What muscles surround the humerus bone?
The bicep on the front and the tricep on the back.
The extrinsic muscles of the hand originate where?
The extrensic muscles of the hand originate from the lateral epicondyle of the humerous
What muscle flexes the humerus?
The humerus doesnt flex. bones dont flex. but the muscles on top are called biceps.
