What is the properties of the biceps muscle?

Most muscles in the body have "counterparts", one pulls and your leg curls up, the other pulls and the leg straightens. They would be on opposite sides of your leg. The "biceps" are the upper arm top muscle, and the tri-ceps (I think) is the upper arm bottom muscle. They work in conjunction to let you 'curl a barbell'' or do a chin-up.


What is it that muscles are not able to do?

Muscles can only pull not push. That is why they work in pairs an example is your tricep and bicep, your bicep pulls your arm up and your tricep pulls your arm down.

Does the muscle pull the bone in one direction and the other in the opposite?

Let's take your arm as an example. you have the bicep and the tricep. all muscles come in pairs. they can only push, not pull. your bicep connects to the top of your hinge joint in your elbow, and your triceps connect to the bottom. your bicep pulls to bend your arm, and your triceps pulls to straighten your arm. Was that a too complicated answer?


What is a muscle that rotates the upper arm?

There is not a single muscle that rotates the upper arm. The name of the muscle that contributes in rotation of the upper arm is deltoid muscle.


Why do muscles need bones in order for the body to move?

AnswerThough not all muscles work in pairs, the general principle is that one muscle moves a bone one way, and the other muscle moves it the opposite way. Why? Because muscles can only pull, not push.For example, when you bend your arm, the biceps muscle pulls. When you want to straighten it, the biceps muscle cannot push it back. Instead, the triceps muscle that's on the back of the arm pulls in the other direction.
