Forearm flexor muscles are more massive than the extensors, because they work against gravity and act as anti-gravity muscles. The ulnar nerve also runs the length of the forearm. The radial and ulnar arteries and their branches supply the blood to the forearm. These usually run on the anterior face of the radius and ulna down the whole forearm. The main superficial veins of the forearm are the cephalic, median antebrachial and the basilic vein. These veins can be used for cannularisation or venipuncture, although the cubital fossa is a preferred site for getting blood. "(See separate nerve articles for details
Extra-pair copulation have longer tails. A similar pattern has been found for black-capped chickadees, in which all extra-pair males had higher rank than the within-pair males. But some argue that genetic benefits for offspring is not the reason females participate in EPC. A meta-analysis of genetic benefits of EPC in 55 bird species found that extra-pair offspring were not more likely to survive than within-pair offspring. Also, extra-pair males did not show significantly better ‘good-genes’ traits than within-pair males, except for being slightly larger overall. Another potential explanation for the occurrence of EPC in organisms where females solicit EPC is that the
