Wikipedia
Biceps
‹See Tfd› The biceps or biceps brachii (Latin: musculus biceps brachii, "two-headed muscle of the arm") is a large muscle that lies on the front of the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. Both heads of the muscle arise on the scapula and join to form a single muscle belly which is attached to the upper forearm. While the biceps crosses both the shoulder and elbow joints, its main function is at the elbow where it flexes the forearm and supinates the forearm. Both these movements are used when opening a bottle with a corkscrew: first biceps screws in the cork (supination), then it pulls the cork out (flexion).

biceps
Biceps are a group of muscles located in the front of the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. They are primarily responsible for the movement and rotation of the forearm and the flexing of the elbow. It consists of a "short head" and a "long head" that work as a single muscle. The term "biceps" is often used in reference to the biceps brachii muscle, although there is also a biceps muscle in the thigh known as the biceps femoris.
Webster Dictionary
