What muscles cause horizontal adduction of the shoulder?
There are four muscles used for horizontal adduction of the shoulder. These muscles are the pectorals major, middle deltoid, latissimus dorsi, and coracobrachilis.
Prime mover for shoulder flexion and adduction?
Do you mean flexion and (abd)uction?? If so, the prime mover would be the deltoid muscle with many smaller muscles assisting. If you are in fact meaning flexion and adduction, the prime mover would be the pectoralis major and the latissimus dorsi with many smaller muscles assisting.
What muscles cause horizontal adduction in the shoulder?
The major muscles involved in horizontal adduction or flexion is the anterior deltoid fibres, pectoralis major and minor. Bicep complex(bbicep brachii, brachioradialis and forearm flexor) comes into action as synergists, if the leverage is long.The antagonists of horizontal flexion is posterior deltoid fibres,teres major, minor, lats and the associated rotator cuff muscle(infraspinatus)
What muscles are involved in the external rotation of the shoulder?
The muscles involved in the external rotation of the shoulder are primarily the Infraspinatus and Teres Minor muscles.
Which muscles are involved in shoulder external rotation?
The muscles involved in shoulder external rotation are the Infraspinatus and Teres Minor.
What two muscles are Important in shoulder adduction and antagonists of the shoulder abductor?
The deltoid is the prime mover in shoulder abduction. It's two antagonists are the pectoralis major and the latissimus dorsi.
What are the muscles involved in shoulder elevation?
The muscles involved in elevating the shoulder girdle (e.g. shrugging your shoulders) are the upper fibers of trapezius, levator scapulae, rhomboid major and rhomboid minor.
What muscles are involved in horizontal flexion?
The muscles that horizontally flex the shoulder are the Pectoralis Major and the coracobrachialis.
What are the muscles that perform adduction of the big toe?

Does adduction require the action of two muscles?
No, adduction is the movement of a body part toward the midline of the body and typically involves the action of only one muscle. For example, the adductor muscles in the thigh are responsible for adducting the leg.
What are some muscles that are used in the upper limb during adduction?
Adduction means to move a body part towards your body's central axis. When adducting an upper limb, which is defined as the area between your deltoid and your hand and including the arm, axilla, and shoulder, the following muscles are used: trapezius, pectoralis minor, rhomboideus, latissimus dorsi, coracobrachialis, flexor carpi, and extensor carpi ulnaris.
