Anterior compartment of the thigh - extension at the knee Medial compartment of the thigh - adduction of the leg Posterior compartment of the thigh - flexion at the hip Anterior compartment of the arm - flexion at the elbow Question 17 Which of the following muscles is responsible for weak hip and knee flexion (when the knee is already bent) and external rotation of the leg? Gracilis Sartorius Rectus femoris Biceps femoris Question 18 Which of the following muscles is deepest in the anterior compartment of the thigh? Rectus femoris Vastus lateralis Vastus intermedius Vastus medialis
Adi S.
Each muscle compartment of the thigh contains at least one muscle which functions to flex the knee. Which of the following INCORRECTLY identifies a muscle compartment and muscle which flexes the knee? More than one answer may apply. a. anterior compartment of the thigh - rectus femoris muscle b. anterior compartment of the thigh - sartorius muscle c. posterior compartment of the thigh - semimembranosus muscle d. posterior compartment of the thigh - biceps femoris/short head e. medial compartment of the thigh - adductor longus muscle f. medial compartment of the thigh - gracilis muscle 2. Which of the following muscles of the LEG crosses the knee joint? a. posterior tibialis muscle b. anterior tibialis muscle c. flexor digitorum longus muscle d. soleus muscle e. gastrocnemius muscle
Evelyn D.
1. The vastus intermedius is to the rectus femoris. 2. The tibialis anterior is to the tibia. 3. The gastrocnemius is to the soleus. 4. The knee is to the hip. 5. The vastus lateralis is to the semitendinosus. 6. The extensor digitorum longus is to the tensor fascia lata.
