Q

The general scheme then is that the shoulder muscles are C5 and C6 (except the pectoralis major brings in C7 and latissimus dorsi brings in C7 and C8). The flexor arm is C5 and C6 while extensor arm is C7 and C8. As we get into the forearm, C5 goes away and C8 is added. Finally, the intrinsic hand muscles are all C8 and T1 (mostly T1).
