What does flexor mean?
A flexor is a type of muscle that serves to bend a joint or limb when it contracts. It is responsible for bringing two body parts closer together. The main function of flexors is to facilitate movement, such as bending your elbow or knee.
Only type of tissue that is able to contract?
Muscle tissue is the only type of tissue in the body that is able to contract. This contraction is how movement is possible in the body.
Only one type of tissue that is able to contract?
Muscle tissue is the only type of tissue in the body that is capable of contracting. This contraction allows for movement and support of body structures.
Only type of tissue that can contract?
The only Biological tissue that is able to contract is MUSCLE tissue and this is because of the specialized proteins: actin and myosin that slide across each other.
Is skeletal muscle considered a type of connective tissue?
No, skeletal muscle is not considered a type of connective tissue. Skeletal muscle is a type of muscle tissue that is responsible for movement in the body, while connective tissue is a different type of tissue that provides support and structure to the body.
What contracts to extends or straighten the limb at the joint?
This type of muscle contracts to bend a limb at a joint
What type of mussle is skeletal muscle?
The skeletal muscle is a type of the visceral muscle.
What is a type of muscle that is voluntary and not striated?
There is none. The only type of non-striated muscle is smooth muscle and smooth muscle is involuntary muscle.
Which type of muscle is in a crosswise direction?
Skeletal muscles are the type of muscles that run in a crosswise direction. These muscles are responsible for voluntary movements in the body.
The only type of muscle that is nonstriated?
The only muscle in the body that is non-striated is the smooth muscle. It does not have any visible striations.
What are the two muscle types?
One type of muscle is called smooth muscle. A smooth muscle works involuntarily. The other type of muscle is called skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle only works with a command.
Which type of electric grabs you and which type throws you?
A very useful question. An a.c. current will cause the muscle to spasm at 50 (or 60) Hertz, and it is difficult to let go. An d.c. current will activate the muscle in one direction only and you'll be thrown free. [I have the scars to prove it!]

Only type of tissue that is able to contract?
Muscle tissue is the only type of tissue in the body that is able to contract. This contraction is how movement is possible in the body.
Which type of muscle is controlled at will by impulses from the brain?
All muscles are controlled by impulses from the brain. Skeletal muscle is, with few exceptions, the only type of muscle that can be controlled at will.
What type of muscle is found only in the walls of the heart?
Cardiac muscle forms the muscular wall of the heart. Cardiac muscle is involuntary muscle.
What only type of tissue is able to contract?
Muscle tissue
