Most of the fibres run in a direction parallel to the bones of the fore-arm, but those which perform the ac- tions of pronation and supina- tion lie obliquely, and some nearly at right angles to the long muscles. In this part of the body the muscles are distinguished by slenderness of form and consequent deli- cateness of tendon, the latter in many cases being equal in length to the muscular fibre, since there are very few mus- cles below the wrist, and those only which are short and thick, for the purpose of mov- ing the thumb and little finger. 245. Tendons of the Fin- gers,—The arrangement of the tendons which are at- tached to the phalanges, for the motion of the fingers, shows the contrivance and skill of an Infinite Being. In slender and easily moved, it is s small a quantity of matter in 244. Give the general arrangement of muscles in the fore-arm. How do the Pronators and Supinators lie?
