How do the adductor muscles of the upper limbdiffer anatomically and functionally from those of the lower limb?
What will be an ideal response?
The upper limb adductors are on the anterior and posterior surfaces of the body. Anterior muscles that adduct the upper limb originate on the pectoral girdle. However, the posterior muscles that adduct the upper limb originate on the axial skeleton. Because of the locations of the origins, the adductor muscles are also used to flex (anterior muscles
