Summarize the muscles that perform the following action on the knee joint (see. Flexion: hamstrings (semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris) (posterior thigh compartment) and gastrocnemius. Extension: quadriceps femoris (rectus femoris, vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, and vastus intermedius) List the muscles of the thigh that cross two joints and explain how these muscles differ in their actions than muscles that only cross one joint.
