Question 20

84. Explain how muscles work as a pair to bend and straighten the arm at the elbow causing movement at the arm

Answer 20

Muscles work in pairs. To bend the elbow the biceps brachii (flexor) contracts and the triceps brachii (extensor) relaxes. To straighten the elbow, the biceps brachii (flexor) relaxes and the triceps brachii (extensor) contracts. Flexion of a joint is a decrease in joint angle. Extension of a joint is an increase in joint angle. This joint movement is called hinge joint. (39. CLF - Exterior Muscles of the Body)
