What else can I help you with?
Flexes forearm and pronates and supinates forearm?
The biceps brachii flexes the forearm, specifically at the elbow joint. The pronator teres and supinator muscles are responsible for pronation and supination of the forearm, respectively, at the radioulnar joints.
What forearm muscles are used to turn a can opener handle?
The flexor digitorum profundus is a muscle in the forearm that flexes the fingers and holds the handle.The flexor carpi radialis and extensor carpi radialis longus allow you 'bend' the wrist as you turn the handle.
What is the gastronemius muscle?
The gastronemius muscle is one of the calf muscles and it plantar flexes the foot or flexes the knee.
The only muscle capable of flexing the distal interphalangeal joints?
The only muscle capable of flexing the distal interphalangeal joints is the flexor digitorum profundus. This muscle originates from the ulna and interosseous membrane in the forearm and inserts on the distal phalanges of the fingers. It is responsible for flexing the distal interphalangeal joints while the flexor digitorum superficialis flexes the proximal interphalangeal joints.
Flexes and adducts arm at the shoulder along with pectoralis major?
The muscle that flexes and adducts the arm at the shoulder, working alongside the pectoralis major, is the latissimus dorsi.
What muscle of the arm and forearm weakly flexes hand?
Palmaris Longus
Which muscle is the triceps paired with?
It is paired with the biceps brachii. The triceps extends the forearm and the biceps flexes it. ("making a muscle")
What muscles start with F?
Flexor digiti minimi brevis is a muscle that flexes the little finger. Frontalis is a facial muscle that wrinkles the eyebrow. FLexor pollicis brevis is a muscle that flexes the thumb.
What muscle extends the arm in a push-up?
break throw muscle shrug write
Flexes forearm and pronates and supinates forearm?

What muscles flex and extend the forearm?
Biceps Brachii flexes the forearm and the Triceps Brachii extends the forearm.
What is the action of the biceps brachii?
-Flexion of the Arm -Flexion of the Forearm-Supination of the Forearm-Stabilization of the glenohumeral joint
What muscle flexes the elbow and supinates the forearm?
to flex the forearm at the elbow, you use the biceps brachii, brachialis, and brachioradial (to a lesser extent).to supinate the forearm, you use the biceps brachii and the supinator muscles.the biceps brachii does both motions.
What forearm muscles are used to turn a can opener handle?
The flexor digitorum profundus is a muscle in the forearm that flexes the fingers and holds the handle.The flexor carpi radialis and extensor carpi radialis longus allow you 'bend' the wrist as you turn the handle.
What corresponding muscle does leg raises go to?
Abductor muscle - moves a limb away from the midlineAdductor muscle - moves a limb towards the midlineExtensor muscle - increase the angle at a joint - extends a limbFlexor muscle - decreases the angle at a joint - flexes a limbPronator muscle - turns a limb to face downwardsSupinator muscle - turns a limb to face upwardsRotator muscle - rotates a limbIn the human body, these are the responsible muscles.*Muscles which move the thigh and their action*Gluteus maximus - Extends and rotates thigh laterally.Adductor longus - Adducts, medially rotates and flexes the thighAdductor brevis - Adducts, laterally rotates and flexes the thighAdductor magnus - Adducts, flexes, laterally rotates and extends the thigh.Rectus femoris - Extends knee and flexes hipVastus lateralis - Extends kneeVastus medialis - Extends kneeVastus intermedius - Extends kneeSartorius - Flexes knee. Flexes hip and rotates femur laterallyBiceps femoris - Flexes leg and extends thighSemitendinosus - Flexes leg and extends thighSemimembranosus - Flexes leg and extends thigh
Name the prime mover that flexes the forearm at the elbow?
It's bicep muscle.Actually its the Brachialis muscle that is the prime mover to flex the upper limb at the elbow. The biceps brachi (leymen: biceps) is only a helper and only when the arm is suppinated, suppination being the biceps primary function. Technically the arm is only the region of the upper limb between the shoulder and the elbo and thus flexion of the arm actually means lifting the humerus up and forwards. The muscles that contribute to this movement are the Clavicular part of the deltoid, clavicular head of pectoralis major, and there is a slight input from coracobrachialisNO the biceps muscle flexes the forearm (the elbow joint). The Pectoralis major is the prime mover of arm flexion. I am getting this right out of my lab book.
What does the sternocleidmastoid muscle move?
it flexes and rotates the head
