Q
  1. Explain how muscles work as a pair to bend and straighten the arm at the elbow causing movement at the joint. Make sure you discuss the type of joint movement.
A

Flexion of a joint is a decrease in the joint angle from the body in an atomic position. When the elbow is bent the forearm is fixed which means that the flexor is contracted or has pulled the bone of the forearm. Most flexion takes place in a forward direction. The exception tho this is the leg where flexion of the joint increased the angle of the joint.
