The sartorius muscle is the longest muscle in the body and helps with flexing the hip and knee joints and rotating the thigh.
What three muscle extends the thigh and flexes the knee?

There are four muscle on the anterior group - quadriceps femoris- and their function is to extend the knee or extend the thigh depend on what part of the muscle don't move. Those muscle are the rectus femorarlis, vastu intermedius, vastu medialis, and vastus lateralis. The muscle that flex the knee are located on the back of the thigh and form the posterior group. They are the biceps femoris, semitendinousus, and the semimembranosus, better known as Hamstring.
