horizontal abduction

Question 20

joint movement at the foot

Answer 20

plantarflexion
dorsiflexion

Question 21

antagonistic pairs

Answer 21

when one muscle contracts and the other muscle relaxes

Question 22

pairs of muscles

Answer 22

bicep and tricep
hip flexor and gluteals maximus
hamstring and quadriceps
tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius

Question 23

isometric movement

Answer 23

occurs when a muscle is acting against a resistance
muscle contracts without movement or shortening

Question 24

isotonic concentric contraction

Answer 24

a muscle shortens under tension
upwards phase of a bicep curl, the biceps contract and shorten to produce flexion at the elbow

Question 25

eccentric isotonic contraction

Answer 25

muscle lengthens under tension
performs negative work
works as a break to control movement
downward phase of a press up, triceps lengthens under tension to control the movement
