it is lies in the posterior part of the calf,it is a flexor of the foot.
The answer would be false. The soleus muscle is superficial to the tibia NOT the gastrocnemius.
type of contraction of gastrocnemius muscle?
A gastrocnemius is a muscle in the human leg. Gasrocnemius derives from Greek and means "stomach of the leg" it refers to the shape of the calf muscle. Therefore your gastrocnemius can specifically be found on the lower back half of your leg.

Gastrocnemius muscle
The effector muscle for the calcaneal reflex (also known as the Achilles reflex) is the gastrocnemius muscle in the calf. When the Achilles tendon is tapped, it causes a contraction of the gastrocnemius muscle, resulting in plantar flexion of the foot.
The gastrocnemius muscle is located with the soleus in the posterior (back) compartment of the leg. It is associated with the "bulge" in the calf muscle.
