The _________ is situated in the middle of the front of the thigh; it is fusiform in shape, and its superficial fibers are arranged in a bipenniform manner, the deep fibers running straight down to the deep aponeurosis. Its functions are to flex the thigh at the hip joint and to extend the leg at the knee joint.

In humans and some other mammals, the _______ is a powerful muscle in the back part of the lower leg (the calf). It runs from just below the knee to the heel, and is involved in standing and walking.

The ______________, remarkable for the great length of its tendon of insertion, is situated at the posterior and medial aspect of the thigh.
It arises from the lower and medial impression on the upper part of the tuberosity of the ischium, by a tendon common to it and the long head of the biceps femoris; it also arises from an aponeurosis which connects the adjacent surfaces of the two muscles to the extent of about 7.5 cm. from their origin.

Biceps femoris
Soleus
Semitendinosus
Gastrocnemius
The _____________ is a superficial two-headed muscle that is in the back part of the lower leg of humans. It runs from its two heads just above the knee to the heel, a three joint muscle (knee, ankle and subtalar joints). The muscle is named via Latin, from Greek γαστήρ (gaster) "belly or stomach" and κνήμη (knḗmē) "leg"; meaning "stomach of leg" (referring to the bulging shape of the calf).
Gastrocnemius
Soleus
Bicep femoris
Semitendinosus
The _____________ is a muscle of the thigh located to the posterior, or back. As its name implies, it has two parts, one of which (the long head) forms part of the hamstrings muscle group.
Both heads of the ____________ perform knee flexion.
Since the long head originates in the pelvis it is also involved in hip extension. The long head of the _________ is a weaker knee flexor when the hip is extended (because of active insufficiency). For the same reason the long head is a weaker hip extender when the knee is flexed.
