As the knee-joint extension is taking place, ankle-joint extension begins and is the only action that occurs as the takeoff (breaking contact with the ground) takes place.
It originates from the femur on the inner side of the plantaris muscle and inserts into the posterior ligament of the knee-joint.
At its insertion the tendon divides into two portions, which embrace the fibular collateral ligament of the knee-joint.
The sensory signals are computed by the microprocessor are used to control the resistance generated by hydraulic cylinders in the knee-joint.
It receives the lymphatic vessels from the knee-joint, together with those that accompany the genicular arteries.
Another is between the popliteal artery and the posterior surface of the knee-joint.
The medial epicondyle is a large convex eminence to which the tibial collateral ligament of the knee-joint is attached.
The tendon of insertion may end in the fascia lata, the capsule of the knee-joint, or the fascia of the leg.
