Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The quadriceps femoris is a group of muscles located on the anterior (front) thigh that works together to extend the knee joint and flexes the hip joint. Therefore, it is the muscle responsible for flexing the thigh. The hamstring group, on the other hand, is located on the posterior (back) thigh and functions to extend the hip joint and flex the knee joint. The gluteus medius and adductor group are also not primarily responsible for flexing the thigh.
