∙ 14y agoMuscles work in pairs just like the bicep and the triceps muscle does one job like lifting your arm is the biceps job, while lowering your arm is the triceps cobwebbed these two muscles working together we would not be able to make these two movements.

∙ 8y agoThey work in antagonistic muscle pairs. Which means to work in opposition to each other.
One muscle produces movement in one direction and the other muscle produces movement in the opposite direction. This provides smooth movement. One contracts and the other slowly relaxes.
