The quadriceps muscle goes over the patella. The patella is encased in the quadriceps tendon. This tendon inserts on the tibia at the tibial tuberosity. Other muscles from the thigh have tendons which go underneath the patella.

The insertion tendon that contains a large sesamoid bone is the patella. Some people refer to the patella as the knee cap.
The quadriceps group contains the patella, a large sesamoid bone, within its insertion tendon. The patella enhances the mechanical advantage of the quadriceps muscles by increasing the angle of pull and providing protection to the knee joint during movements.
No, severing the patellar tendon would not directly inactivate the hamstring group. The patellar tendon is connected to the patella (kneecap) and the quadriceps muscles, not the hamstring muscles. The hamstring group is responsible for flexing the knee and extending the hip.
It is connected to the tendon of the quadriceps femoris muscle.
It is a sesamoid bone. This type develops in certain tendons where there is considerable friction, tension, and physical stress. Functionally, they protect tendons from excessive wear and tear, and they often change the direction of pull of a tendon, which improves the mechanical advantage of a joint.
A hamstring is a group of three muscles located at the back of the thigh, not a tendon.
The hamstring is a group of three muscles located at the back of the thigh. It is not a tendon.
The primary muscle group used in lunges is the quadriceps, hamstrings, and gluteus maximus. These muscles commonly insert at the tibia via the patellar tendon for the quadriceps, while the hamstrings insert at the tibia and fibula. The gluteus maximus primarily inserts on the femur and the iliotibial band. These insertion points facilitate knee and hip extension during the lunge movement.
These muscles all have a ligament of insertion which is called the patellar ligament. This ligament inserts to the tibial tuberosity.

The carbonyl group (CO) contains carbon but not the amino group (NH2) which contains nitrogen and hydrogen.
