Transcribed Image Text:**Structure and Function of Forearm Muscles**
**Supinator Muscle**
The supinator is a short muscle near the elbow that *arises* from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and the ridge of the ulna. It curves around the upper portion of the radius and *inserts* on the lateral edge of the radial tuberosity and the oblique line of the radius.
**Flexion of Fingers of the Hand**
Three muscles flex the fingers. The flexor digitorum superficialis, as seen in illustration D, figure 27.2, flexes all fingers except the thumb. It *arises* on the humerus, ulna, and radius. Its *insertion* consists of...
