What is the role of antagonist synergistic stabilizer and neutralizer muscle in human body?
Stabilizer - the muscle may contract to hold a body part immobile while another body part is moving. The sustained stabilizing contraction is frequently isometric. In most normal activities, proximal joints are stabilized by muscle contractions during movement of more distal joints - proximal stabilization. For an isolated movement at one joint to occur, the muscles that control the joints proximal to that joint must stabilize the proximal joints so that no motion occurs there. The antagonists for each motion at the proximal joint co-contract or contract against each other to prevent motion. Example: the quadriceps may stabilize the knee in an extended position of permit plantar flexion of the ankle as when the individual rises to tip-toe in erect position To perform isolated elbow flexion the proximal shoulder joint must be stabilized by flexors/extensors, abductors/adductors and internal/external rotators. Neutralizer - prevents unwanted motions a muscle can perform so a specific motion can occur. Mostly dependant on the angle of pull. Examples: the biceps can flex the elbow and supinate the forearm. If only elbow flexion is wanted, the supination component must be ruled out. Therefore, the pronator teres, which pronates the forearm, would contract to counteract the supination component of the biceps, and only elbow flexion would occur. Neutralizers act to cancel out an unwanted movement With wrist ulnar deviation the flexor carpi ulnaris will cause lexion and lunar deviation of the wrist. The extensor carpi ulnaris will cause extension and ulnar deviation. If ulnar deviation is desired, these muscles would contract doing two things: they would neutralize each other's flexion/extension component, and they would act as agonists in wrist ulnar deviation Stabilizers and Neutralizers both use co-contraction to prevent motion and have an antagonistic relationship. Stabilizersare associated with joints; Neutralizers are associated with muscle.

What is the antagonist muscle to the frontalis?
The antagonist muscle to the frontalis is the occipitalis. The frontalis muscle raises the eyebrows and wrinkles the forehead, while the occipitalis muscle pulls the scalp backwards.
Antagonist of brachialis?
The primary antagonist of the brachialis muscle is the triceps brachii muscle. When the brachialis contracts to flex the elbow, the triceps relaxes to allow this movement.
What is the agonist and antagonist muscle pair in the wrist?
The agonist muscle for wrist flexion is the flexor carpi radialis, while the antagonist muscle is the extensor carpi radialis longus. These muscles work in opposition to produce movement at the wrist joint.
What muscle is the main antagonist of medial rotation of the humerus?
The main antagonist of medial rotation of the humerus is the infraspinatus muscle, one of the rotator cuff muscles. It works in opposition to the muscles that perform medial rotation, such as the subscapularis.
Agonist and antagonist of lateral dumbell raise?
The primary agonist muscle in a lateral dumbbell raise is the deltoid, specifically the lateral (side) head of the deltoid. The antagonist muscle is the latissimus dorsi, which performs the opposite movement by extending the shoulder while the deltoid is lifting the dumbbell.
Which muscle is the stabilizer synergist agonist and antagonist in scapula elevetion and depression?
hm...if I had to take a wild guess....I would guess serratus anterior and pec minor.
What muscle that counteracts the action of another muscle?
antagonist muscle
What is an antagonist muscle?
A antagonist muscle is a muscle that opposes the action of another muscle. The Triceps Brachii is the antagonist of the Biceps Brachii.
What is the synergistic muscle in soccer?
It is probably the leg
When you bend your elbow what is the triceps muscle acting as in relation acting as in relation to the biceps muscle?
antagonist
What is the medical term for a muscle that acts with another muscle to produce movement?
synergistic muscle
An example of an antagonist muscle is?
Antagonist muscles are muscles that counteract the action of agonist muscles.Some examples of antagonist muscles are:Triceps work opposite of biceps.Hamstrings works opposite of quadriceps.The sternocleidomastoid works opposite of the deltoids.
What is the opposite of a antagonist muscle?
The opposite of an antagonist muscle is a protagonist muscle, often referred to as an agonist. The agonist muscle is the primary muscle responsible for performing a specific movement, while the antagonist muscle opposes that movement. For example, during a bicep curl, the biceps act as the agonist, and the triceps serve as the antagonist.
What is the antagonist muscle of dorsi flexion?
The antagonist is your mom
What is antagonistic muscles?
A antagonist muscle is a muscle that opposes the action of another muscle. The Triceps Brachii is the antagonist of the Biceps Brachii.
What is the angonist muscle and which is the antagonist muscle in a bicep curl?
The agonist (not angonist) muscle are the Biceps Brachii and the Brachioradialis and the antagonist is the Triceps Brachii.
What is the antagonist of the masseter?
The antagonist of the masseter muscle is the digastric muscle. It helps to open the jaw by working against the masseter muscle during swallowing and speaking.
