supination

Front 14

What is the insertion site for the biceps?

Which artery follows the radial nerve down the arm?

Back 25

posterior cutaneous nerves of arm and forearm

Front 26

Fracture of the humerus damages this nerve and leads to this presentation.

Back 26

Radial nerve, leading to wrist drop bc of inability to use extensors
