    Every muscle of the hamstring group extends the thigh and flexes the leg.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because the hamstring group consists of three muscles: the biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus. These muscles work together to extend the thigh at the hip joint and flex the leg at the knee joint. This action is important for movements like walking, running, and jumping. Therefore, it is correct to say that every muscle of the hamstring group extends the thigh and flexes the leg.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because the muscles in the serratus group do indeed insert at the medial border of the scapula. The serratus group includes the serratus anterior muscle, which originates from the upper eight or nine ribs and inserts into the medial border of the scapula. This muscle is responsible for protracting and stabilizing the scapula, allowing for movements such as reaching forward and pushing. Therefore, the correct answer is true.
