Tibialis anterior

Which of the following muscles can perform inversion of the foot when concentrically contracting?

Tibialis anterior

Dorsiflexion is the dorsal aspect of the foot moving toward the anterior tibia

True

True

An ankle sprain is a common injury that involves the stretching or tearing of one of more tendons

False

Both the tibialis posterior and the flexor digitorum longus are innervated by the tibial nerve (S1,2)

False

Heel-strike is normally occurs by landing on the heel with the foot in supination and the leg in external rotation

True

Motions of the toe metacarpophalangeal joints include flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction.

True

Pronation is a combination of ankle dorsiflexion, subtalar eversion and forefoot abduction.

True

Severe injuries at the tibiofibular joint can inolved the posterior tibiofibular ligament, interosseus ligament, and interosseus membrane.

True

The distal malleoli of the tibia and fibula serve as pulleys for the posterior tendons to increase the mechanical advantage of the respective muscles in performing inversion and eversion actions.
