Chlorite dismutase (Cld) catalyzes the reduction of the toxic compound ClO 2 â¾ to environmentally innocuous Clâ¾ while producing O 2. This detoxification reaction is an essential step in the dissimilatory perchlorate reductive pathway.
1 Support Us!  Rectus Femoris. The structure indicated is the rectus femoris of the quadriceps group of thigh muscles. The rectus femoris is one of the muscles that makes up the quadriceps femoris, and is contained in the anterior compartment of the thigh. The muscles of the anterior compartment are all innervated by the femoral nerve and serve generally to extend the leg at the knee joint.
The quadriceps muscle group consists of four muscles: the rectus femoris, the vastus lateralis, the vastus intermedius, and the vastus medialis. It is a large fleshy mass that covers the front and sides of the femur bone (upper leg bone).The muscles work together as the primary extensor of the knee. The rectus femoris is the only two-joint muscle in the group, crossing both the knee and the hip joint.he quadriceps muscle group consists of four muscles: the rectus femoris, the vastus lateralis, the vastus intermedius, and the vastus medialis.
