The biceps or biceps brachii (Latin: musculus biceps brachii, "two-headed muscle of the arm") is a large muscle that lies on the front of the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. Both heads of the muscle arise on the scapula and join to form a single muscle belly which is attached to the upper forearm.
The biceps brachii, also known as the biceps, is a two-headed muscle located on the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. It consists of two parts: the long head and the short head.
The biceps femoris (/ ˈ b aɪ s ɛ p s ˈ f ɛ m ər ɪ s /) is a muscle of the thigh located to the posterior, or back.

Biceps reflex. Biceps reflex is a deep tendon reflex (DTR) test (also known as a muscle-stretch reflex test) [1] that examines the function of the C5 reflex arc and the C6 reflex arc. [2] The test is performed by using a tendon hammer to quickly depress the biceps brachii tendon [3] as it passes through the cubital fossa.
The semitendinosus, 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 ...
