Which muscle will contract and relax when you move your lower knee?
When you move your lower knee, primarily the quadriceps muscle in the front of the thigh will contract to extend the knee. Conversely, the hamstring muscles at the back of the thigh will relax to allow this movement. When bending the knee, the hamstrings contract while the quadriceps relax. This coordinated action enables smooth movement of the knee joint.
