MSK 7 Flashcards
the arm is divided into anterior and posterior compartments by extension of deep fascia called the…
medial and lateral intermuscular septae
the anterior or flexor compartment of the arm is innervated by what nerve?
musculocutaneous nerve
the posterior or extensor compartment of the arm is occupied by the extensor muscle and is innervated by what nerve?
radial nerve
what is the origin of the biceps brachii?
short head: coracoid process
long head: supraglenoid tubercle of scapula
what is the insertion of the biceps brachii?
radial tuberosity and fascia of forearm via bicipital aponeurosis
what are the function of the biceps brachii?
