Answer 1

Muscle	Origin	Insertion	Action
Iliacus	Iliac fossa within abdomen	Lowermost surface of lesser trochanter of femur	Flexes medially rotates hip
Psoas	Transverse processess of L1-5, bodies of T12-L5 and interverterbral discs below bodies of T12-L4	Middle surface of lesser trochanter	Flexes and laterally rotates hip
Gluteus Maximus	Outer iliac blade, iliach crest, sacrum, coccyx	Gluteal tuberosity of femus, iliotibial band of fasciae latae	Extends and laterally rotates thigh, braces knee
Glutius medius	Outer iliac blade	Greater trochanter of femur	Abducts and medially rotates thigh
Sartorius	Anterior superior iliac spine	Proximal, medial tibia	Flexes and laterally rotates thigh, flexes leg
Gracilis	Symphysis pubis	Proximal, medial tibia	Adducts thigh, flexes leg
Adductor Magnus	Pubis , Ischium	Gluteal tuberosity, linea aspera, adductor tubercle of distal femur	Adducts, flexes, extends and laterally rotates thigh
Adductor longus	Body of pubis inferior and medial to pubic tubercle	Lower two thirds of medial linea aspera	Adducts and medially rotates hip
Rectus Femoris	Anterior inferior iliac spine, margin of acetabulum	Tibial tuberosity by paterllar tendon	Flexes thigh, extends leg
Vastus medialis	Linea aspera, medial side	Tibial tuberosity by paterllar tendon	Extends leg
Vastus lateralis	Greater trochanter of femus, linea aspera of femur	Tibial tuberosity by paterllar tendon	Extends leg
Vastus intermedius	Proximal, anterior femur	Tibial tuberosity by paterllar tendon	Extends leg
Bicepes femoris	Ischial tuberosity, Linea aspera	Head of fibula, lateral condyle of tibia	Extends thigh, flexes leg
Semitendinosus	Ischial tuberosity	Proximal, medial tibia	Extends thigh, flexes leg
Semimembranosus	Ischial tuberosity	Medial condyle of tibia	Extends thigh, flexes leg
