Antagonistic muscle pairs, such as the biceps and triceps, work together to control movement. When one muscle contracts, the other relaxes, allowing for smooth and coordinated motion. For example, during elbow flexion, the biceps contract while the triceps lengthen, enabling the arm to bend. This complementary action is essential for various movements throughout the body.

These muscles are the pectoralis major and the pectoralis minor muscles.
The pairs of muscles that work together but pull in opposite directions are known as antagonistic muscles. One muscle in the pair contracts while the other relaxes, allowing for controlled movement. For example, when the biceps contract to flex the arm, the triceps relax; conversely, when the triceps contract to extend the arm, the biceps relax. This coordination is essential for smooth and balanced movement.
When one muscle of a pair contracts, the other muscle of the pair relaxes to allow movement of the body part.
When one muscle of a pair contracts, the other muscle of the pair relaxes to allow movement of the body part.
Voluntary Muscles can contract or pull but, they cannot push. When they are finished pulling and are relaxed, their antagonists on the other side of the couple must pull the joint back.
The pair of antagonistic muscles used in kicking a ball are the quadriceps (agonist) and hamstrings (antagonist). The quadriceps contract to extend the knee and straighten the leg to generate power for the kick, while the hamstrings act to flex the knee and control the movement.
Abduction and addiction are two opposite functions, involving movement away from the centre line of the body, and towards the centre line of the body, respectively. When two muscles perform these two opposite functions, and are dependent on each other, they are called an antagonistic pair. This also applies to muscles that flex and extend.
The muscles that work as opposite pairs to move bones are called "antagonistic muscles." When one muscle in the pair contracts to create movement, the other muscle relaxes to allow that movement to occur. This coordinated action helps in the smooth and controlled movement of limbs and other body parts. An example of this is the biceps and triceps in the arm.
when you choose to move a pair of muscles work together, 1 contracts and 1 relaxes therefore making the body part move
Skeletal muscles work in pair because of the limitation that these muscles can only contract or pull and can only move in one direction.
