The head, attached to the top of the vertebral column, is balanced, moved, and rotated by the neck muscles (). When these muscles act unilaterally, the head rotates. When they contract bilaterally, the head flexes or extends. The major muscle that laterally flexes and rotates the head is the sternocleidomastoid.
Femur (function of neck) ensures that the head of the femur is at an angle and at a distance from the shaft of the femur which facilitates mobility Femur (greater trochanter) located proximally and laterally, insertion site for gluteus minimus and medius for mobility and stability
