What is the major artery in the knee?
The major artery of the thigh is the Femoral artery and runs through the muscles, from the groin down the inner leg. It is approximately 4cm in length then it divides into two branches.

Which vessel supplies the lower arm?
The brachial artery supplies blood to the lower arm. It runs down the arm and branches into smaller arteries to provide blood flow to the tissues of the forearm and hand.
Which nerve runs in proximity to the medial epicondyle of the humerus?

How is the long head of the biceps related to the inter-tubercular groove?
The long head of the biceps brachii muscle runs through the intertubercular groove of the humerus. This groove is located between the greater and lesser tubercles and serves as a channel for the tendon of the long head as it travels from the shoulder joint to its insertion on the radial tuberosity. The tendon is anchored by the transverse humeral ligament, which helps stabilize it within the groove during arm movements.
