The Layers of Muscles in the Plantar Foot
Dividing the muscles in the plantar foot in layers, there are three muscles in the first and third layers, and two muscles and two tendons in the second and fourth layers. […]
Dividing the muscles in the plantar foot in layers, there are three muscles in the first and third layers, and two muscles and two tendons in the second and fourth layers. […]
There are a dozen intrinsic muscles within each foot. There are some tricks to learning the many muscles in the plantar foot. One helpful thing is to consider them in four layers. […]
Condyloid or ellipsoidal joints allow more movement than simple hinge joints. As a result, at the metatarsophalangeal joints, we get not only flexion and extension, but abduction, adduction, and even a bit of circumduction. […]
From Cosmos to his award-winning books, Carl Sagan is often seen as a leading science communicator. Test your knowledge in our fun quiz. […]
Carl Sagan was a world-famous American astronomer and planetary scientist. He contributed research on the possibility of alien life and hosted the popular television show Cosmos. Wondrium explores his life and legacy. […]
The traditional quantum mechanics found its more modernized version in the second quantum revolution. While it introduced newer concepts like virtual photons, it did heavily rely on the traditional Heisenberg principle of uncertainty. […]
At a scientific conference, it was discussed that the magnetic moment of the electron could be measured with much accuracy and precision. The later findings about the anomalous magnetic moment further served to prove the presence of virtual particles around subatomic particles. […]
Everywhere in the universe, there are virtual particles appearing and disappearing constantly. Hendrik Casimir proposed an experiment to validate the claim. […]
The human knee is a hinge joint that is well protected by collateral and cruciate ligaments. Apart from these, there are other smaller ligaments that strengthen the posterior part of the knee. […]
There are six or seven posterior leg muscles that can run either superficial or deep. While the superficial ones are the most obvious, the deeper running muscles are related to the anterior muscles. […]
