Chapter 8 Revised Flashcards
Supination
Palm is anterior (like holding soup)
-radius and ulna are parallel
Muscles involved in supination
Supinator
Supinator
-wraps around proximal radius
-assist the bicep branchii
Pronation
Palm is posterior
-radius and ulna are crossed
Muscles that aid in pronation
-pronator teres
-pronator quadratus
Flexors (action)
Decrease the joint angle
-anterior muscles
What are the three flexors
-bicep branchii
-branchialis
-brachioradialis
LONG bicep branchii origin and interception
O: tubercole of scapula
I: radial tuberosity
SHORT biceps branchii origin and insertion
O: coracoid of scapula

Brachioradialis (Action and Muscle Group)
Flexes the arm muscles of the humerous
-anterior muscle
Are flexors anterior or posterior?
Anterior
Extensors
Returns angle to normal
