Clear, cited answers drawn from the Institute of Human Anatomy's lab videos and accredited medical sources — never random corners of the internet.
What an answer looks like
Each answer is written in plain English, then backed by the references it came from — with a jump straight to the moment in the IOHA video where the structure is shown.
Example
The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles — supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis — whose tendons wrap around the head of the humerus. Their main job is to hold the ball of the shoulder snugly in its shallow socket while larger muscles move the arm1, and they also help rotate and lift the arm2.
Type a question the way you'd ask an anatomist in the lab — no medical jargon required.
Ask IOHA looks through the Institute of Human Anatomy video library and accredited medical references — not the open web.
Every answer links back to its sources, including the exact moment in the IOHA video where it's shown on real anatomy.
