The gracilis muscle lies on the inner thigh, connecting from the lower portion of your pubic bone to the upper inner surface of your knee bone. The Sartorius muscle connects from the upper portion of your pubic bone and wraps around the thigh and connecting to the inner portion of the knee.
The Sartorius and Gracilis are two upper leg "strap" muscles.
Pes anserinus ("goose foot") refers to the conjoined tendons of three muscles: the sartorius, gracilis and semitendinosus.
Sartorius muscles.
sartorius adductor muscle
sartorius gracilis semitendinosus
The sartorius, gracilis,and semitendinosus muscles attach tot he pes anserinus tendon of the leg. The three muscles have three tendons that joint to form the pes anserinus.
There are seven major muscles in the frogs hind limbs. Some of these muscles include adductor longus, triceps femoris, adductor Magnus and tendon Achilles.
Nine. Front: Gracilis (inner thigh), Adductor magnus (below Gracilis), Sartorius, Quadriceps femoris (above knee), Tibialis anterior, Back:Peroneous longus (outer caf), Soleus, Gastronemius (inner caf), and Biceps femoris.
Peroneus Longus
Leg muscles include the gracilis, sartorius, rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis in the front of each leg and the hamstrings, bicep femoris, semimembrabosus, gastrocnemius, and soleus in the back of each leg.
The muscles used for knee internal rotation include the popliteus, semitendinosus, semimembranosus, gracilis, sartorius, and semitendinosus muscles. These muscles work together to rotate the knee inwards.
The sartorius muscle is considered the longest muscle in the human body. It runs from the hip to the inner side of the knee. The gracilis muscle, located in the inner thigh, is one of the most slender muscles in the body.
