Is the pectoralis major muscle anterior or posterior to the subscapularis muscles?

What major nerves serve the anterior thigh?

The major nerves that serve the anterior thigh are the femoral nerve and the obturator nerve. The femoral nerve innervates the quadriceps muscles, while the obturator nerve innervates the adductor muscles of the thigh.

Is the pectoratealis major anterior or posterior to subscapularis muscle?

The pectoralis major muscle is anterior to the subscapularis muscle. The pectoralis major is located on the front of the chest, while the subscapularis is situated on the anterior surface of the scapula, towards the back of the thoracic cavity. Thus, in relation to the subscapularis, the pectoralis major is positioned in front.

Is the pectoralis major anterior to the rhomboids?

Yes, the pectoralis major is anterior to the rhomboids. The pectoralis major is located on the front of the chest, while the rhomboids are situated in the upper back, between the shoulder blades. This positioning means that the pectoralis major lies in front of and above the rhomboids.


What muscle moves the scapula forward and rotates scapula upward?

You can't have one muscle that both elevates AND depresses a bone. So your question is a little confusing, Upward rotation: Serratus anterior, Upper and lower fibers of trapezius Retraction (adduction): Middle fibers of trapezius, rhomboid major and minor Elevation: Upper fibers of trapezius, levator scapulae, rhomboid major and minor Depression: Lower fibers of trapezius Let me know if I left any out but this should be all of them! Trevor .............................. the above answer is incomplete........ The trapezius is antagonist to itself, in that it can both elevate and depress the scapula
