True
True or False: The back pocket MMT was for the levator scapula, rhomboid major, and rhomboid minor
True
True or False: The pronator teres is innnervated by the median nerve.
True
True or False: The radial collateral ligament provides lateral stability to the elbow and is rarely injured.
True
True or False: The thumb has only two joints while all the other fingers have three.
True
True or False: The ulna is much larger proximally than the radius.
True
True or False: When performing a pushup the biceps brachii is considered to be an antagonist muscle.
