2. How many adductor muscles exist within the body? List them here.
Asma V.
Below is a picture of the gluteus medius and minimus (from now on referred to as the gluteals) on the left and the adductor magnus on the right. These muscles are considered antagonists because they produce opposing movements. Which statements correctly describe the action of each muscle? 1. The gluteals are the abductors because they move the limb away from the midline. 2. The gluteals are the adductors because they cross on the lateral side of the hip. 3. The adductor magnus acts as an abductor when it moves the limb toward the body's midline. 4. The gluteals are the abductors because their lines of action cross on the medial side of the hip. 5. The adductor magnus acts as an adductor when it moves the limb away from the body's midline. 6. The adductor magnus has the actions of an abductor because its lines of action cross on the lateral side of the hip. 7. The gluteals are the adductors because they move the limb away from the midline. 8. The adductor magnus is the adductor because its lines of action cross on the medial side of the hip.
