Exploring the Muscular Functions in Frogs Quiz

The Sartorius muscle is the longest muscle in the human body and is responsible for flexing the thigh at the hip and flexing the leg. It does not extend the thigh, abduct the thigh, or rotate the leg internally.

The Adductor Magnus is a muscle that is responsible for bringing hindlimbs to the body, aiding in movement and stability.

The Rectus internus major and minor muscles are responsible for lifting the hindlimbs upward in animals. They play a crucial role in movement and mobility.

The Triceps Femoris is responsible for extending the leg and flexing the thigh. It consists of three heads - the long head, lateral head, and medial head - that work together to perform these functions.

The Gastrocnemius muscle is located in the calf and is responsible for flexing the leg at the knee joint and extending the foot at the ankle joint.

The Biceps Femoris is a muscle that primarily extends the thigh and flexes the leg. The incorrect answers provided correspond to other muscles with different functions.

Mesenteries play a crucial role in the digestive system by preventing the small intestine from knotting and facilitating the connection of blood vessels from the small intestine to the liver.

The liver plays a crucial role in the digestion process by secreting bile and processing digested food molecules carried in the blood from the ileum. It does not produce insulin, filter oxygen, or store excess water.

The spleen plays a key role in filtering blood to remove old or damaged red blood cells, as well as helping the body fight off infections by producing antibodies.

The Gall Bladder is a small sac located beneath the liver that stores bile produced by the liver. When food is consumed, the gall bladder releases the stored bile into the small intestine to help with the digestion of fats.

The stomach's primary function is to store food and mix it with enzymes to initiate the process of digestion. Absorbing nutrients, regulating blood sugar levels, and producing bile are functions primarily performed by other organs in the digestive system.

The small intestine is responsible for digesting and absorbing digested food to extract nutrients for the body.

The duodenum is the first part of the small intestine where food mixes with digestive juices from the pancreas and liver.

The Ileum is the final section of the small intestine, primarily responsible for absorbing nutrients from digested food

The Large Intestine is mainly responsible for storing undigested food before it is eliminated from the body through bowel movements.
