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.
What work opposite to your biceps muscle?

What is the name for muscles that work as opposite pairs to move bones?
The muscles that work as opposite pairs to move bones are called "antagonistic muscles." When one muscle in the pair contracts to create movement, the other muscle relaxes to allow that movement to occur. This coordinated action helps in the smooth and controlled movement of limbs and other body parts. An example of this is the biceps and triceps in the arm.
Muscle contracts to move?
the muscles and the bone work together and attached
Muscle that work in opposite pairs are called?
antagonistic muscles
What body parts work in pairs to pull your bones in different directions?
They are the muscles. Muscles contract in pairs to move the parts across the joint. One muscle contract with more power. The opposite muscle contracts with less power and get stretched over to allow the first muscle to act.
Why must skeletal muscles work in pairs to move a bone?
Skeletal muscles work in pairs to move a bone so that the muscles can function properly. Muscles can only pull, therefore bones need two muscles to make it move. To put a finger up one muscle might pull, the other will put to put back down. With two, the movement will be smooth, otherwise it will be "jerky" and uncontrolled.
What do your bones work with to move parts of the body?
Human Muscle
Why do muscles need bones in order for the body to move?
AnswerThough not all muscles work in pairs, the general principle is that one muscle moves a bone one way, and the other muscle moves it the opposite way. Why? Because muscles can only pull, not push.For example, when you bend your arm, the biceps muscle pulls. When you want to straighten it, the biceps muscle cannot push it back. Instead, the triceps muscle that's on the back of the arm pulls in the other direction.
When pairs of muscles work in opposite directions to move a limb?
When pairs of muscles work in opposite directions to move a limb, they are referred to as antagonistic muscles. One muscle, known as the agonist, contracts to produce movement, while the opposing muscle, the antagonist, relaxes to allow that movement to occur. This coordinated action enables smooth and controlled motion, as seen in activities like bending and straightening the arm. For example, when you flex your bicep, the tricep acts as the antagonist, relaxing to facilitate the movement.
