Each of the Following Terms is a Descriptive Term for a Muscle's

Question

Each of the following terms is a descriptive term for a muscle's action except
A) levator.
B) pronator.
C) extensor.
D) sartorius.
E) adductor.

Accepted Answer

Levator, pronator, extensor, and adductor all describe specific actions of muscles (lifting, rotating towards the midline, extending, and bringing towards the midline, respectively). Sartorius, while a muscle, does not have a descriptive term for its action, as its function is more complex and not easily summarized in one word.
