Contraction of the biceps and the relaxation of the triceps bend the arm .In straightening the arm the triceps contract and the biceps relax
With some organisms, movement is carried out with the help of appendages.
The muscles responsible for opposition movement of the thumb are the opponens pollicis and the abductor pollicis brevis. These muscles help bring the tip of the thumb in contact with the tips of the other fingers.
Allows for organism movement (skeletal muscles) or organ movement (cardiac muscles, smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract) Generates heat (in endotherms) Allows for blood to return to the heart after it has flowed to the extremities (by squeezing the veins when they contract)
well it depends on where the organism starts but usually the organism will be around the shoulder blade and then be pished to the spine by the neck muscles. when the organism reaches the spine, the larjdick then vibrates forcing the organism down to the arcerooter causing a reaction in the notochord wich is the start of the process of moving the organism around. the nervr chord and bachbone react and relate to the movement of the notochord thus moving the organism.
The muscles of an organism make up the muscular system.
Yea muscles are responsible for movement
Involuntary muscles
Muscles are the primary tissues responsible for movement in the body. They are composed of muscle fibers that contract and generate force, resulting in movement. Tendons connect muscles to bones, allowing the force generated by the muscles to be transmitted to the bones, causing movement. Additionally, ligaments, which connect bones to other bones, provide stability and support during movement.
Skeletal Muscles
voluntary muscles
voluntary muscles
prime movers : muscle that initiate a particular movement synergism : muscles that have the same action of the prime mover antagonist : muscles that come into play to oppose a certain movement
