Ischial tuberosity
No, severing the patellar tendon would not directly inactivate the hamstring group. The patellar tendon is connected to the patella (kneecap) and the quadriceps muscles, not the hamstring muscles. The hamstring group is responsible for flexing the knee and extending the hip.
A hamstring is a group of three muscles located at the back of the thigh, not a tendon.

The hamstring
The general name for the group is hamstring. The technical names of the two primary muscles are semitendinosus and semimembranosus.
Yes. Hamstring group include the biceps femoris, semitendinosus and the semimembranosus.
Ischial tuberosity
No! N-o!
No, the hamstring group does not insert into the distal tibia. The hamstrings attach to the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis and insert on the proximal tibia and fibula.
No, the hamstring is a group of three muscles located at the back of the thigh. Tendons are tough, fibrous tissues that connect muscles to bones.
