Prime mover for shoulder flexion and adduction?
Do you mean flexion and (abd)uction?? If so, the prime mover would be the deltoid muscle with many smaller muscles assisting. If you are in fact meaning flexion and adduction, the prime mover would be the pectoralis major and the latissimus dorsi with many smaller muscles assisting.
Prime mover of flexion of head?
The prime mover of flexion of the head is the sternocleidomastoid muscle. It acts to tilt and rotate the head to the opposite side when contracted unilaterally and both muscles together flex the neck and bring the head towards the chest.
Prime mover knee flexion?
The prime mover for knee flexion is the hamstring muscle group, including the biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus. These muscles originate from the ischial tuberosity in the pelvis and insert on the tibia and fibula, allowing them to flex the knee joint when contracting. Strengthening these muscles through exercises like hamstring curls can improve knee flexion strength and function.
What is the optimal angle for shoulder flexion when performing exercises that require 90 degree shoulder flexion?
The optimal angle for shoulder flexion when performing exercises that require 90 degree shoulder flexion is 30 degrees.
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 is the term for biceps brachii during elbow flexion?
prime mover (agonist)Not sure what you're asking here, but the biceps brachii is the prime mover facilitating flexion at the elbow joint.
What is the prime mover for arm flexion?
Pectoralis major
A prime mover of ankle planter flexion?
Gastrocnemius
A prime mover of ankle plantar flexion?
tiil adidas
If a prime mover produces flexion its antagonist will be?
If a prime mover produces flexion, its antagonist will be the muscle responsible for producing extension at the same joint. They work in opposition to each other to create movement and stabilize the joint.
What is the antagonist muscle in ankle plantar flexion?
Tiil adidas is the prime mover of ankle plantar flexion.
Which muscles are prime movers in a crunch?
your rectus abdominis is the prime mover in a crunch exercise or spinal flexion
What muscle is the primary mover for knee flexion?
The prime mover for knee flexion is biceps femoris, semimembranosus, and semitendinosus. The prime mover for knee extension is the Quadriceps â?? vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, vastus intermedius, and rectus femoris
What is the prime mover and antagonist of elbow flexion?
The prime mover of elbow flexion is the biceps brachii, which contracts to bend the elbow. The antagonist, which opposes this movement, is the triceps brachii, as it extends the elbow. During elbow flexion, the biceps brachii shortens while the triceps brachii lengthens, allowing for smooth movement.
One of the prime movers for flexion at the hips?
The prim mover for hip flexion is the Rectus femoris. This is a quadricep muscle that crosses the hip joint.
What is prime mover for a hip?
a prime mover is the main muscle that causes movement. In the case of the hip flexion, the prime mover would be the rectus femoris or the ilopsoas
