Where is the humurus?

The humerus is the top of your arm. Where you biceps are is where your humerus.


Is groove of the humerus is origin of biceps muscle?

yes


How do the tricep bicep and humerus work?

The Biceps contract when the triceps relax and the biceps relax when the triceps contact!! The humerus are a bone therefore it just makes the arm supported... (if you want to add anything to this just do it!!!)


Does the biceps brachii muscle originate or insert on the humerus?

It inserts onto the humerus. It originates from the coracoid process of the scapula. There are 2 parts - Long head and short head. The long head is connected to the coracoid process by a tendon that comes up between the tubercules of the humerous. The short head is connected directly to the humerus.


Where are the triceps based?

Under your biceps, under the humerus (the bone between your elbow and your shoulder)


What muscle flexes the elbow but neither originates nor inserts on the humerus?

The biceps brachii muscle.


What muscle flexes the humerus?

The biceps brachii muscle is responsible for flexing the humerus. It is a two-headed muscle located in the upper arm that helps in bending the elbow and also plays a role in shoulder flexion when the arm is rotated.


Where is the humerus in relationship to the elbow?

Above it (it's under the biceps).The humerus is proximal to the elbow.


Name a muscle that is a synergistic to the biceps brachii during elbow flexing?

Brachialis - attaches from the anterior proximal humerus to the coronoid process of the ulna - strong flexor of the elbowBrachioradialis - attaches from the lateral supracondylar ridge of the humerus to the distal styloid of the radius - weak flexor of the elbow


What is the origin of the brachialis?

The brachialis muscle originates from the front of the humerus bone in the upper arm. It lies deep to the biceps brachii muscle and is responsible for flexing the arm at the elbow joint.


What movement would be produced if the biceps contracted if the elbow was held in extension?

The interesting thing about the Biceps Humerous (Bicep=Two Heads Humerus=Attached to the humerus bone) is that its main function is NOT to flex the elbow joint. This is moslty done by Brachialis muscle although the Biceps does help. The main action of the biceps, and also what is does if it is not flexing the elbo is to Suppinate the Forearm. This means to turn the palm from facing backwards to facing forwards. In fact the biceps cannot flex the elbow unledd the forearm has first been supinated.


What part of the body does the bicep move?

The biceps muscle is located in the front area of the upper arm. The biceps muscle helps to stabilize the large bone in the upper arm (the humerus) in the shoulder socket. It also helps to accelerate and decelerate the arm during overhead activities, like tennis or pitching. The biceps tendons keep the biceps muscle attached to the shoulder at one end and the elbow at the other end. Tendons are strong cord-like structures that connect each end of the biceps muscle to bones. At one end of the biceps muscle, tendons connect the biceps to the shoulder in two places. At the other end of the muscle, tendons connect the biceps muscle to the smaller bone (radius) in the lower arm. Source:AAOS
