It begins with two heads: the larger, humeral head, caput hwnerale, from the epicondylus medialis humeri, septum intermusculare brachii mediale, fascia antebrachii, and the smaller, ulnar head, caput ulnare, originating from the medial edge of the tuberositas ulnae. Both heads form a somewhat flattened abdomen from front to back, which turns into a narrow tendon. The muscle runs obliquely from the inside to the outside and is attached to the middle third of the facies lateralis radii. Action: pronates the forearm and takes part in its flexion. Innervation: n. medianus (C6-C7). Blood supply: muscle branches aa. brachialis, ulnaris, radialis.
  2. Flexor carpi radialis, m. flexor carpi radialis, bipinnate, flat, longus muscle. It is located the most lateral of all the forearm flexors. In the proximal part, the muscle is covered only by aponeurosis m. bicipis brachii and m. palmaris longus, and the remaining, large, part of the muscle is covered only by fascia and skin. The muscle begins from the epicondylus medialis humeri, septa intermuscularia and fascia antebrachii and, heading down, passes under the retinaculum flexorum to the base of the palmar surface of the II (III) metacarpal bone. Action: bends and pronates the hand. Innervation: n. medianus [C6-C7-(C8)]. Blood supply: muscle branches a. radialis.
  3. Palmaris longus muscle, m. palmaris longus, has a short fusiform abdomen and a very long tendon. Lies directly under the skin medially from m. flexor carpi radialis.

b) radial, caput radiale. wide and short, from the proximal part of the palmar surface of the radius.

Both heads, uniting together into a common abdomen, end in 4 long tendons. The latter, moving to the hand, lie in the canalis carpi and are attached to the base of the middle phalanges from the index finger to the little finger. At the level of the proximal phalanges, each tendon is divided into two and therefore is attached not at one, but at two points - along the edges of the base of the middle phalanges.

Notes

Incredible facts

Some organs in the human body exist not because they serve a purpose, but because they were useful to our ancestors.

They remained as rudiments - physiological remnants of our evolutionary past.

Look closely and you'll see that they make sense within the framework of evolution by natural selection.


The structure of the human body

Palmaris longus muscle


The palmaris longus muscle is a vestigial muscle of the forearm. This is a group of muscles that runs from the base of the palm up the arm.

It can be found among many mammals, but it is most developed in those that frequently use their forearms for locomotion, such as monkeys and lemurs. 10-15 percent of people no longer have this muscle, sometimes it is present in only one arm, although this does not affect the compression force.

Often this muscle is removed by surgeons in cases where it is necessary Plastic surgery in other parts of the body.

Anterior, superior and posterior auricular muscles


Some people can move their ears. The muscles that allow them to do this are vestigial: the anterior auricularis, superior auricularis and posterior auricularis.

These same muscles allow other mammals to move their ears to better hear sounds and determine their source.


In fact, people try to move their ears in the direction of the sound, but these movements are very small and can be detected using electrodes.

Goosebumps


When we're cold, tiny ones muscles attached to hairs on our body contract and raise the hairs, which causes goosebumps to appear on the skin.

In mammals covered with fur, this creates better insulation and a more intimidating appearance in case of danger. Emotional music can also cause goosebumps because it triggers the fight-or-flight response associated with the release of adrenaline.

Coccyx


The tailbone is also a relic of the tail of our ancestors.

Each of us had a tail at some point in our development - around the fourth week of fetal development. Human embryos are very similar to those of other vertebrates, including the tail. However, in humans and other primates, tail cells are programmed to die.

Guys, we put our soul into the site. Thank you for that
that you are discovering this beauty. Thanks for the inspiration and goosebumps.

Palmaris longus muscle

Place your hand on a flat surface with your palm facing up. Place your little finger and thumb together and then lift them up slightly. Did you see a ligament on your wrist? This muscle is the “legacy” of our ancestors and is responsible for releasing claws and strengthening the grip when jumping from tree to tree. Don't worry if you haven't found it - modern life she's useless.

Goose pimples

The main causes of goosebumps are cold and danger. Wherein spinal cord produces stimulation of peripheral nerve endings, which raise the hair. In the cold, this allows you to retain more heat inside the cover, and in case of danger it gives the animal a more massive appearance. Goosebumps are also associated with strong emotional experiences and can appear from admiration.

Epicanthus

Epicanthus - skin fold on upper eyelid, characteristic only of the Mongoloid race. Most researchers believe that it arose as a result of the natural conditions of human habitation: severe cold, deserts and hot sun.

Lunar fold

This tiny fold of skin at the corner of the eye is a remnant of the nictitating membrane. In birds, reptiles and fish, it is fully functional and serves to keep the surface of the eye moist and intact. At some point, it became unnecessary for people, but they retained a small piece of this fold, connected to the muscles.

It is a short fusiform abdomen and a very long tendon, stretching almost from the elbow to the wrist. Oddly enough, 14% of people simply don’t have it.

Anatomical experts say that the absence of this tendon does not affect grip strength in any way. However, in case of any specific injury where the need for transplantation arises, it is a good source - a kind of spare part in the human body.

To check if you have it, gather all five fingers into a pinch and bend your wrist - the tendon is clearly visible in the wrist area, provided that it is present. In other mammals, this same tendon is responsible for releasing claws. Apparently, that’s why some people don’t have it - our species doesn’t have the need to extend claws.

Tendons different people may look completely different. The number of tendons and muscles is just as individual.
