To extend a muscle A MOTION IS MADE TO INCREASE AN ANGLE BETWEEN TWO BONES.
An extensor is a muscle that straightens a joint.
An agonist muscle is a muscle that plays a part in the extension of a muscle. The agonist muscles for a knee extension are the quadriceps and hamstrings.
Ligaments provide stability to a joint during both rest and movement. Excessive movements such as hyper-extension or hyper-flexion can be restricted by ligaments. Also, ligaments prevent movements in some directions.
Complex muscle movements is the ability for the muscles to move to the desired directions.
extension, contraction
The over-extension of a muscle might feel like burning or pain in the muscle. After the exercise, the muscle can feel sore or even swollen.

For example when you bend you arm towards your shoulder your bicep muscle is shortening and you can feel a bump. When you extend your arm you can feel that the bump is stretching out and disappearing, that is muscle extension.
Tendons are very flexible, and also very resistant to extension. If arm muscle tissue was directly attached to the bone, then extreme movements would very easily tear the tissues and damage the muscle.
Quadriceps muscle or thigh muscle.
involuntary muscle movements
No, the length of the muscle fibers does not change. In isotonic movements is when the length changes.
