    These are the hamstrings: semimembranosus, semitendinosus and Biceps Femoris . They are the agonists of knee flexion Is all of this TRUE or FALSE  

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true. The hamstrings, which consist of the semimembranosus, semitendinosus, and Biceps Femoris muscles, are indeed the agonists of knee flexion. This means that they are primarily responsible for bending the knee joint.

    Here is a supplementary question that also refers to the picture of the gymnast:. Pick out the Rotator cuff muscles from the alternatives below. - ProProfs

    Here is a supplementary question that also refers to the picture of the gymnast:. Pick out the Rotator cuff muscles from the alternatives below.

    • Teres Minor

    • Sacrospinalis

    • Teres Magnus

    • Semispinalis

    • Subscapularis

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Teres Minor
    A. Subscapularis
    Explanation
    The rotator cuff muscles are a group of muscles that help stabilize and move the shoulder joint. The teres minor and subscapularis are both part of the rotator cuff muscles. The teres minor is a small muscle located on the back of the shoulder, while the subscapularis is a larger muscle located on the front of the shoulder. These muscles work together with the other rotator cuff muscles to provide stability and control during shoulder movements.

    Here you can see the Quadriceps group of muscles. Pick out the only correct statement below.

    • The quadriceps is made up of 4 muscles: Vastus Medialis, Vastus Lateralis, Vastus Intermedius and Biceps Femoris. These muscles flex the knee.

    • The quadriceps is made up of 4 muscles: Vastus Medialis, Vastus Lateralis, Vastus Intermedius and Rectus Femoris. These muscles flex the knee.

    • The quadriceps is made up of 4 muscles: Vastus Medialis, Vastus Lateralis, Vastus Intermedius and Biceps Femoris. These muscles extend the knee.

    • The quadriceps is made up of 4 muscles: Vastus Medialis, Vastus Lateralis, Vastus Intermedius and Rectus Femoris. These muscles extend the knee.

    Correct Answer
    A. The quadriceps is made up of 4 muscles: Vastus Medialis, Vastus Lateralis, Vastus Intermedius and Rectus Femoris. These muscles extend the knee.
    Explanation
    Quads extend (straighten) the knee, as when kicking a ball or pushing off starting blocks.

    Below is an image from the Jan 2011 paper. Choose the three correct answers form the list of possibilities

    • Hinge

    • Ball and socket

    • Iliopsoas

    • Gluteus Maximus

    • Extension

    • Flexion

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Ball and socket
    A. Iliopsoas
    A. Flexion
    Explanation
    The ball and socket joint allows for a wide range of movement in multiple directions, making it one of the correct answers. The iliopsoas is a muscle group that is responsible for flexing the hip joint, which is another correct answer. Flexion refers to the bending of a joint, so it is also a correct answer in this context. The other options, hinge, gluteus maximus, and extension, are not relevant to the given question and are therefore incorrect.

    State all the bones of the knee- you're looking for two

    • Patella

    • Fibula

    • Tibia

    • Femur

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Tibia
    A. Femur
    Explanation
    The fibula is not a part of this joint

    Look at the ankle position shown in the picture. Say which muscle is  the agonist of this ankle movement and  click on the movement being shown

    • Plantarflexion

    • Dorsiflexion

    • Gastrocnemius

    • Tibialis Anterior

    • Flexion

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Plantarflexion
    A. Gastrocnemius
    Explanation
    Remember the P: Plantarflexion = Pointing the toes
    Soleus is another correct answer

    Pick out the 1 FALSE statement in this information about movement at the SHOULDER JOINT

    • A person with their arm by their side has their shoulder extended

    • Anterior Deltoid is on the front of the body

    • Middle Deltoid is the muscle of shoulder abduction

    • A tennis forehand would usually be an example of horizontal flexion

    • A butterfly swimmer would be performing circumduction in their arm action

    • Lifting your arm forwards and upwards is shoulder flexion

    • The bones articulating at the shoulder are humerus and clavicle

    • Latissimus Dorsi moves the humerus downwards

    • Pectoralis Major helps to pull your arms across your chest

    Correct Answer
    A. The bones articulating at the shoulder are humerus and clavicle
    Explanation
    The shoulder is the joint with most movement possibilities

    Make sure you know all agonists: F/E, Ab/Ad, HF/Hex

    These statements about the hip are TRUE or FALSE. Select the TRUE statements.

    • There are 3 adductor muscles: adductor longus, magnus and brevis

    • Iliopsoas is the muscle of hip extension

    • The only movements possible at the hip are: Flexion, Extension, adduction, Abduction and Rotation

    • Gluteus Medius is the agonist of hip abduction

    • When you bring your knees up to perform a tuck jump you will be performing hip flexion

    • Hip extension involves bending at the hip

    • Gluteus Maximus is the agonist of hip extension

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. There are 3 adductor muscles: adductor longus, magnus and brevis
    A. Gluteus Medius is the agonist of hip abduction
    A. When you bring your knees up to perform a tuck jump you will be performing hip flexion
    A. Gluteus Maximus is the agonist of hip extension
    Explanation
    The statement "There are 3 adductor muscles: adductor longus, magnus and brevis" is true because these three muscles are indeed adductor muscles of the hip. The statement "Gluteus Medius is the agonist of hip abduction" is true because the gluteus medius muscle is responsible for the abduction of the hip. The statement "When you bring your knees up to perform a tuck jump you will be performing hip flexion" is true because bringing the knees up towards the chest involves hip flexion. The statement "Gluteus Maximus is the agonist of hip extension" is true because the gluteus maximus muscle is the primary muscle responsible for extending the hip.
