There is no such muscle. Their is a biceps femoris and it is in the thigh as one of the three hamstring muscles. They are: biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus. yes there is this guy doesnt know what he is talking about. it is in a frog

quadriceps femoris
Three muscles that act synergistically with the rectus femoris are the vastus lateralis, the vastus intermedius, and the vastus medialis. Together the four muscles compose the quadricep muscles of the thigh.
This muscle is also used to flex the thigh. The rectus femoris is the only muscle that can flex the hip. Injury to the rectus femoris muscle may result from overuse, as seen with kicking- or sprinting-related injuries. Inflammation of the muscle causes pain in the groin during physical exercises that use this muscle.
In your arm The above answer is incorrect. He/she is referring to the triceps brachii. The triceps femoris is a posterior thigh muscle in Anurans (frogs and toads); though I cannot say that it occurs in all species in the Order.
extends leg; straightens knee joint
The Quadriceps extend just like the triceps, which include the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius. The Hamstrings flex just like the biceps, which include the biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus. Quads extend, Triceps extend Hamstrings flex, arm biceps (biceps brachii, brachialis) flex
There are seven major muscles in the frogs hind limbs. Some of these muscles include adductor longus, triceps femoris, adductor Magnus and tendon Achilles.
The tricpes brachii muscle is one muscle. It is an extensor muscle, meaning that it opens, or extends the arm from the shoulder (as opposed to the bicpes, which is a flexor muscle, that closes the arm.)
Wiggle your fingers - now watch yourself doing that.
the real name is rectus femoris, the vastus muscles are the ones laterally, medially and intermedius, there is no vastus femoris. the Quadriceps Femoris are: rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis and vastus intermedius.
triceps
The term femoris refers to anything concerned with the thigh.
Biceps femoris performs knee flexion.
Biceps brachii muscle, is a muscle located on the inside of the upper arm Biceps femoris muscle, is one of the hamstring muscles at the back of each thigh
There are 4 groups in the quadriceps femoris muscle.
