Answer 5

They work in antagonistic muscle pairs. Which means to work in opposition to each other.
One muscle produces movement in one direction and the other muscle produces movement in the opposite direction. This provides smooth movement. One contracts and the other slowly relaxes.

Answer 6

Muscles only pull, not push. So while one muscle pulls, the other muscle relaxes.
