Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Biceps femoris		flexes, abducts, laterally rotates femur
Tibialis anterior		adducts, flexes and medially rotates femur
Gluteus maximus		extend femur
Adductor longus		flexes hip, extends leg at knee

Gastrocnemius		plantar flexion, flexes knee
Sartorius		dorsiflexion, inverts foot

Match the muscles of the lower extremity to the appropriate description

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Latissimus dorsi		O: anterior surface of ribs 3-5; I: coracoid process
Biceps brachii		I: upper medial border of scapula; A: elevates and adducts scapula
Levator scapulae		O: T2-T5, I: medial border of scapula
Pectoralis minor		O: C7-T1, A: retracts and rotates scapula to rest position
Triceps brachii		A: extends and adducts arm: I: intertubercle groove of humerus
Rhomboid major		O: acromion, spine of scapula and lateral 1/3 of clavicle, A: abducts, extends and medially & laterally rotates the arm
Rhomboid minor		O: inferior border of scapula, A: medially rotates and adducts arm
Deltoids		A: extends forearm, I: olecranon process
Teres major		O: supraglenoid tubercle of scapula & coracoid process of scapula, A: Supinates forearm, flexes elbow
