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

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.
