What else can I help you with?
What are muscles called that work in opposition with each other?
Antagonistic muscle pairs. That 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. It would seem to be contradictory but a very smooth movement occurs when they work this way.
Which muscle produces movement through relaxation and movement?
All muscles.
What is the type of muscle contraction that produces movement in a joint and allows the muscle to shorten?
By tensing.
The type of movement a skeletal muscle produces is called its?
origin
What is the intestine muscles?
This is smooth muscle. It produces a wave of movement.
Why do you need two opposite muscle for every movement of your skelloten?
flexable
Why do you shake if it is cold?
Muscle movement produces heat which will increase your body temperature.
Which two concepts explain how the body produces movement?
The two concepts that explain how the body produces movement are muscle contraction and joint movement. Muscle contraction occurs when muscles shorten or lengthen in response to nerve signals, causing movement. Joint movement allows for the articulation of bones and the range of motion at joints to create different types of movement.
Muscles that work as opposite pairs to move bones are called?
Agonist & AntagonistsAgonist is the muscle responsible for the primary movement ( muscle that contracts)Antagonist is the opposite muscle that must relax to allow the agonist to move a joint.
Can anyone define these muscle terms Antagonist pairs prime mover synergist fixator origin and insertion?
Antagonist: Controls movement, opposite of prime mover Prime Mover: Main muscle that is directly responsible for movement Synergist: Aids in movement of muscle
How is body heat created in warm blooded animals?
Muscle movement produces the most body heat.
What Muscle extends in any movement?
None. Muscles only contracts. In order to extend, the muscle on the opposite movement has to contract. For example, the biceps help flex the elbow, but it does not extend the elbow; the triceps does that.
