Hello,

Which of the following muscles participates in flexion at the gleno-humeral and humero-ulnar joints?
biceps brachii
coracobrachialis
deltoi

ans is biceps. I thought that both biceps and coracobrachialis were in those 2 joints. Is it because coracobrachialis does also adduction that they ruled it out? Any thougths? Thx.

no its because the corocabrachialis is inserted above the elbow joint hence does not affect it..
