Question 0

Insertion of Flexor Digitorum Superficialis

Answer 0

Shafts(bodies) of middle phalanges of medial four digits

Question 1

Origin of Flexor Digitorum superficialis (Intermediate layer)

Answer 1

Humero-ulnar head: Medial epicondyle of humerus and coronoid process of ulna
Radial Head: Oblique line of radius

Question 2

Innervation of Flexor Digitorum Superficialis

Answer 2

Median Nerve (C7, C8, T1)

Question 3

Action of Flexor Digitorum Superficialis

Answer 3

Flexes wrist joint
Flexes proximal interphalangeal joints of middle four digits; acting more strongly, it also flexes proximal phalanges at metacarpophalangeal joints.

Question 4

Origin of Flexor Digitorum profundus

Answer 4

Proximal three quarters of medial and anterior surfaces of ulna and interosseous membrane

Question 5

Insertion of Flexor Digitorum Profundus

Answer 5

Bases of distal phalanges of 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th digits

Question 6

Innervation of Flexor Digitorum Profundus

Answer 6

Lateral part(to digts 2 and 3) median nerve (C8, T1)

Medial pat(to digits 4 and 5) Ulnar nerve (C8, T1)

Question 7

Action of Flexor Digitorum profundus

Answer 7

Flexes wrist joint
Flexes distal interphalangeal joints of digits 2, 3, 4, and 5.
assists in wrist flexion

Question 8

Origin of Flexor Pollicis Longus

Answer 8

Anterior surface of radius and adjacent interosseous membrane

Question 9

Insertion of Flexor Pollicis Longus

Answer 9

Base of distal phalanx of thumb

Question 10

Innervation of Flexor pollicis longus

Answer 10

Anterior interosseous nerve from median nerve (C8, T1)

Question 11

Action of Flexor Pollicis Longus

Answer 11

Flexes wrist

Flexes metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints of thumb

Question 12

Origin of Pronator Quadratus

Answer 12

Distal quarter of anterior surface of ulna

Question 13

Insertion of Pronator Quadratus

Answer 13

Distal quarter of anterior surface of radius

Question 14

Innervation of Pronator Quadratus

Answer 14

Anterior interosseous nerve from median nerve (C8, T1)

Question 15

Action of Pronator Quadratus

Answer 15

Pronates forearm; deep fibers bind radius and ulna together.
