Two muscles that bring about opposite effects are known as what?
Two muscles that bring about opposite effects are known as antagonistic muscles. They work in pairs, where one muscle contracts while the other relaxes, allowing for controlled movement. For example, when the biceps brachii contracts to flex the elbow, the triceps brachii relaxes, and vice versa. This coordination is essential for smooth and efficient motion in the body.

Leg curl is a muscular resistance exercise that primarily works which muscle group?
The leg curl and leg extension exercises strengthens two muscle groups. The two muscle groups are the hamstring muscles and the quads or quadricep muscles.
Two sets of muscles are to each other?
Two sets of muscles can be described as antagonistic pairs, where one muscle contracts while the other relaxes to produce movement. For example, the biceps and triceps in the upper arm work together: when the biceps contracts to flex the elbow, the triceps relaxes, and vice versa when extending the elbow. This coordinated action allows for smooth and controlled movements throughout the body.
