Function of coracobrachialis?
This muscle flexes and adducts the humerus. It is also a synergist of the pectoralis major
What corresponding muscle does leg raises go to?
Abductor muscle - moves a limb away from the midlineAdductor muscle - moves a limb towards the midlineExtensor muscle - increase the angle at a joint - extends a limbFlexor muscle - decreases the angle at a joint - flexes a limbPronator muscle - turns a limb to face downwardsSupinator muscle - turns a limb to face upwardsRotator muscle - rotates a limbIn the human body, these are the responsible muscles.*Muscles which move the thigh and their action*Gluteus maximus - Extends and rotates thigh laterally.Adductor longus - Adducts, medially rotates and flexes the thighAdductor brevis - Adducts, laterally rotates and flexes the thighAdductor magnus - Adducts, flexes, laterally rotates and extends the thigh.Rectus femoris - Extends knee and flexes hipVastus lateralis - Extends kneeVastus medialis - Extends kneeVastus intermedius - Extends kneeSartorius - Flexes knee. Flexes hip and rotates femur laterallyBiceps femoris - Flexes leg and extends thighSemitendinosus - Flexes leg and extends thighSemimembranosus - Flexes leg and extends thigh
Extends and adducts wrist?
Extensor carpi ulnaris
Extends adducts and rotates arm medially?
subscapularis
What is the action of the quadriceps muscle group?
Flexing the thigh, extending the leg, adducts leg
What muscle adducts hip and extention of knee?
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 muscle flexes and adducts arm at the shoulder?
which shoulder muscle allows you to adduct your arm
Is a humerus a muscle or bone?
The humerus is one of the bones in your arm.
What structure connecting the pectoral muscle to the humerus?
The structure connecting the pectoral muscle to the humerus is the tendon of the pectoralis major muscle. This tendon attaches the muscle to the upper arm bone (humerus), allowing for movements like shoulder flexion, adduction, and medial rotation.
What is thwe muscle found in the chest that adducts the arm?
The pectorals major
What is the action of the coracobrachialis?
It contributes to adduction, horizontal adduction, and flexion of the humerus, enabling the arm to swing forwards, and it is a synergist of the pectoralis minor.
Muscle that adducts the shoulder and causes extension of the shoulder joints?
latissimus dorsi
