What attaches to the greater trochanter in the human body?
The gluteus medius and minimus muscles attach to the greater trochanter in the human body.
What are the two sites of muscle attachment on the proxial femur?
The two sites of muscle attachment on the proximal femur are the greater trochanter and the lesser trochanter. These bony prominences serve as points of attachment for muscles that control movements at the hip joint.
What is the bony process on the femur?
The femur is the long bone of the leg. The two large processes of the proximal femur are the greater and lesser trochanter.
What bones have trochanters?
The femur bone has trochanters. The greater trochanter is located at the top of the femur where the hip muscles attach, and the lesser trochanter is located on the inner side of the femur where the thigh muscles attach.
What is the large proximal projection on the femur?
Trochanter. A large, rough projection.trochanter
The two large processes of the proximal femur are the greater and lesser?
greater trochanter and lesser trochanter
What attaches to the greater trochanter in the human body?
The gluteus medius and minimus muscles attach to the greater trochanter in the human body.
Does the lesser trochanter connect to the psoas major tendon?
Yes, the lesser trochanter is the site of insertion for the psoas major muscle tendon. The psoas major attaches to the lesser trochanter of the femur and plays a role in flexing the hip joint.

Do femur and humerus bones have trochanchanters?
Just the femur has a trochanter. It has a greater and a lesser trochanter. They give depth and stability to the joint.
What are the major features of the proximal portion of the femurs?
The four major features of the proximal end are the head, neck, greater trochanter, and lesser trochanter

What does a trochanter do?
The trochanter is a bone feature of the tibia, it interacts with the femur. Its function is to aid in the stability of the knee joint.First there are two trochanters. most simply called the Greater(the larger of the two) Trochanter and the Lesser(smaller of the two) Trochanter. Most of the time the "bump" you feel on the outside of your hip/upper leg is the Greater Trochanter. As with most "bumps' on bones ,the trochanters serves as anchor attachments for the muscles in hip/leg/buttock area. Among those muscles that insert to the Greater trochanter are the the Gluteus Minimus. Gluteus Medius, and Prirformis among others. Hope this helps
Which muscles attach to the greater trochanter?
The muscles that attach to the greater trochanter are the gluteus medius and gluteus minimus.
