The muscle that primarily adducts the hip and extends the knee is the adductor magnus. This large muscle is located in the inner thigh and plays a significant role in hip adduction, while its posterior fibers also assist in extending the knee. In addition to the adductor magnus, the quadriceps group can contribute to knee extension. However, the primary focus for both actions is the adductor magnus.

What is the agonist muscle in hip flexion?
Rectus femoris+ anterior thigh; quadriceps+ extension of leg at knee Vastus lateralis+ lateral anterior thigh; quadriceps+ extension of leg at knee Vastus Medialis+ medial anterior thigh; quadriceps+ extension of leg at knee Vastus intermedius+ deep anterior thigh; quadriceps+ extension of leg at knee Sartorius (*) parallel strap-like muscle that crosses thigh flexion of knee forward Biceps femoris* posterior thigh; hamstring* flexion of leg at knee Semitendinosus* posterior thigh; hamstring* flexion of leg at knee Semimembranosus* posterior thigh; hamstring* flexion of leg at knee
What muscle flexed the hip and the knee?
That is incorrect! The hamstring group extend the thigh at the hip joint!
What are the two joints sartorious cross?
The two joints that the sartorius muscle crosses are the hip joint and the knee joint. The muscle originates at the anterior superior iliac spine of the hip bone and inserts at the upper medial surface of the tibia below the knee joint.
Are the hamstrings muscles two-joint muscle that act at the knee and hip.?
true
What is the function of the longest muscle?
Function of the sartorius is flexion of the hip and knee joints. It is also called as 'Tailor's muscle'.
What muscle is pulled when the knee is forced into extension when the hip is already fully flexed?
the hamstrings :)
What muscle contracts over both hip and knee joints?
Sartorius and Rectus femoris
Are Hamstring muscles are a two jointed muscle that act at the knee and hip true or false?
true
The hamstring muscles are a two-joint muscle that acts at the knee and hip?
True.
What muscle flexes the hip and knee joints?
The strongest Flexor of the hip (thigh) is illiopsoas muscle which is the merger of the illiacus and the psoas major muscle. The illiacus is on the medial side of the pelvic bone attaching to the femur and the psoas major muscle attaches from the lumbar vertebrae to the femur.
