F. The major muscle of the calf is the tibialis anterior.

G. The semimembranosus and semitendinosus originate on the linea aspera.

H. The iliopsoas is a composite muscle made up of the psoas major and the iliacus muscles.

I. A hamstring injury can occur during rapid flexion of the knee.

J. The group of muscles that make up the anterior thigh are the quadriceps.

K. The innermost abdominal muscle is called the internal abdominal oblique.

L. The hamstrings insert on a large sesamoid bone called the patella.

M. The Sartorius and tensor fasciae latae both originate from the anterior superior iliac spine.

N. The vastus medialis is the only quadriceps that provides flexion of the hip along with knee extension.

Please answer all questions.

Answer 1

The quadriceps extend the knee, the hamstrings extend the thigh and flex the knee, intramuscular injections are often given in the gluteus medius, the depression at the back of the knee is the popliteal fossa, and the iliopsoas is composed of the psoas major and iliacus.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. True. The muscle group that extends the knee is known as the quadriceps.

B. Quadriceps. The muscle group that extends the thigh and flexes the knee is known as the hamstrings.

C. True. Intramuscular injections are usually given in the gluteus medius rather than the gluteus maximus.

D. True. The depression on the back of the knee is called the popliteal fossa.

E. Flexors. The extensors of the spine allow you to bend over and touch your toes.

F. Gastrocnemius. The major muscle of the calf is the tibialis anterior.

G. True. The semimembranosus and semitendinosus originate on the linea aspera.

H. True. The iliopsoas is a composite muscle made up of the psoas major and the iliacus muscles.

I. True. A hamstring injury can occur during rapid flexion of the knee.

J. True. The group of muscles that make up the anterior thigh are the quadriceps.

K. Transversus abdominis. The innermost abdominal muscle is called the internal abdominal oblique.

L. Tibia. The hamstrings insert on a large sesamoid bone called the patella.

M. True. The Sartorius and tensor fasciae latae both originate from the anterior superior iliac spine.

N. Rectus femoris. The vastus medialis is the only quadriceps that provides flexion of the hip along with knee extension.

Answer 2

B. True

C. False

D. True

E. True

F. True

G. False

H. True

I. True

J. True

K. False

L. True

M. True

N. True

Explanation: A&B. the quadriceps are a group of muscles connecting through the knees and thighs.

C. Intramuscular injections are usually given in the gluteus maximus because they contain the largest muscle on the buttocks.

G.The semimembranosus is located in the pelvis.

I. Harmstring injuries occur during flexion because it involves bending.

K. Transverse abdominal muscles is the innermost muscles.
