The biceps muscle is located on the front of which part of the arm?

Upper arm back Upper arm front Forearm Shoulder

Correct Answer:

Upper arm front

Explanation:

The biceps brachii sits in the front part of the upper arm. Its position in the anterior compartment means it’s the muscle you feel when you flex your elbow and rotate the palm upward (supination). It’s separate from the set of muscles on the back of the upper arm (the triceps), and from the muscles in the forearm or the shoulder region. So, the biceps is located on the front of the upper arm.
