Where is the posterior crural region found?
Think this out by using a diagram or even a stick figure.1. The posterior surface is the "backside" of the body.2. Now look at or draw the back of the leg.3. The sural region region is the calf of the leg (still looking at the back).4. Mark that spot.5. The femoral region is the thigh.6. Now the question is asking "what is closer to the point of attachment to the body than the calf BUT further away from the point of attachment than the thigh."7. What do you see BETWEEN the calf and the thigh?8. What is this space called? What is the anterior (front) called?For more info see the link below:
Which nerve approches the knee and divides into two branches the fibular nerve and the tibial nerve?
The sciatic nerve approaches the knee and divides into two branches: the fibular nerve (also known as the common peroneal nerve) and the tibial nerve. This division typically occurs near the popliteal fossa, which is the area behind the knee. The tibial nerve continues down the posterior leg, while the fibular nerve travels laterally and wraps around the neck of the fibula.

Is your hamstring used while playing football?
Yes. The hamstring is a tendon that connects the knee to the muscles of the thigh and is used in running."In human anatomy, a hamstring refers to one of the three posterior thigh muscles, or to the tendons that make up the borders of the space behind the knee. In modern anatomical contexts, however, they usually refer to the posterior thigh muscles, or the tendons of the semitendinosus, the semimembranosus and the biceps femoris." - Wikipedia 15/10/09The hamstrings, as a group, act over the backs of 2 joints - at the back of the thigh and behind the knee.The hamstring is important during running and walking especially. The hamstrings also assist deceleration when the knee is ballistically (forcibly) extended - as in slowing the leg down after kicking the football and in returning it back to the ground.
