Q

popliteus

action

A

if the foot is not fixed: medially rotates leg
if the foot is fixed (as if standing on the floor): laterally rotates the femur

when knee is locked - unlocks the locked knee at the beginning of flexion (by rotating tibia relative to the femur)

when the knee is locked - the femur is medially rotated with respect to the leg
