Muscles Of The Upper Appendicular Region (arm And Forearm)

The origin of the Biceps Brachii muscle is the Glenoid Fossa of Scapula, where it originates from before insertion.

The brachialis muscle originates from the humerus, inserts into the coronoid process of the ulna, and its action is to flex the forearm.

The brachioradialis muscle originates from the humerus, inserts at the styloid process of the radius, and its action is to flex the forearm.

The Pronator Teres muscle originates from the Medial Epicondyle of Humerus and Coronoid Process of Ulna, and inserts into the Shaft of Radius. It is responsible for flexing the forearm.

The Triceps Brachii muscle originates from the scapula and humerus, inserts into the olecranon process of the ulna, and its action is to extend the forearm.

Flexor Carpi Radialis originates from the Medial Epicondyle of Humerus, inserts onto Metacarpals II and III, and its action is to flex the wrist. The incorrect answers provided have different origins, insertions, and actions, making them inaccurate choices.

Palmaris Longus originates from the medial epicondyle of the humerus, inserts into the palmar aponeurosis, and primarily functions to flex the wrist. The incorrect answers provided describe the origin, insertion, and action of different muscles, illustrating the importance of understanding the specific characteristics of each muscle.

The correct origin of Flexor Carpi Ulnaris muscle is the Medial Epicondyle of Humerus, and the correct insertion is Hammate & Metacarpal V. It is important to understand these details to correctly identify the muscle and its actions.

The Flexor Digitorum Superficialis originates from the Medial Epicondyle of Humerus, not the other options provided.

Flexor Digitorum Profundus is a muscle responsible for flexing the distal phalanges of digits II-V. Its origin is from the coronoid process and shaft of the ulna, and it inserts onto the distal phalanges II-V. The correct action for this muscle is to flex digits II - V. The incorrect answers provided are variations of other muscles with different origins, insertions, and actions.

The Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus muscle originates from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, inserts at the metacarpal II, and its action is to extend the wrist. The incorrect answers provided describe different muscles with their respective origins, insertions, and actions.

The Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis muscle originates from the Lateral Epicondyle of Humerus, not the other options provided.

The Extensor Digitorum muscle originates from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and inserts into the middle and distal phalanges of digits II-V. This muscle is responsible for extending the second through fifth digits.

The Extensor Carpi Ulnaris muscle originates from the Lateral Epicondyle of Humerus, not the Medial Epicondyle of Humerus, the Scaphoid Bone, or the Lumbricals muscle.

The Pollicis Group originates from the shaft of the radius and ulna and inserts into metacarpal I. This group of muscles functions to extend Digit I.
