When the joint is bent the muscle gets hard and the bottom relaxes.
No, it is the opposite. Muscles that bend a joint are called flexors, while muscles that straighten a joint are called extensors. For example, the biceps are flexors of the elbow joint, and the triceps are extensors of the elbow joint.
The wrist is bent by the wrist flexor muscles, including the flexor carpi radialis, flexor carpi ulnaris, and palmaris longus. These muscles are responsible for flexing the hand at the wrist joint.
Muscles stabilize joint by supporting the movement of the joints. Joint in the bones are not able to move alone. The muscles support weight from applying pressure to the joint which protects the joint from damage.
The ligaments which connect the bones in a joint provide the greatest stability
A joint is moved on its axis by muscle contraction. Muscles contract to generate force, pulling on the bones that make up the joint and causing movement. The specific movement produced is determined by the type of joint and the arrangement of muscles surrounding it.

Muscles contract and relax to move a joint. ... Muscles contract at a constant rate. Muscles contract and relax to move a joint.
The muscles around the pivot joint are the Quadricep and the Hamstring muscles.

Muscles that bend a joint are flexors; musces that straighten a joint are extensors.
No, it is the opposite. Muscles that bend a joint are called flexors, while muscles that straighten a joint are called extensors. For example, the biceps are flexors of the elbow joint, and the triceps are extensors of the elbow joint.
Opposing muscles use connective tissues to cause movement in a joint.
This depends on how large the burn is and the location. In the hospital severe burn patients keep their arms or legs straight the majority of the time to prevent contractures. Contractures occur at joints when the skin and muscle cannot stretch when the joint is straightened. To prevent this, the joint is kept straight and exercises are preformed regularly to move the joint through it's entire range of motion (Bent to Straight). The main goal is to prevent the joint from having difficulty bending from the skin not being able to stretch. In almost all cases the effected joint is kept straight because the muscles that allow for flexing or bending the joint are stronger than the muscles for straightening the joint. This is difficult because keeping the knee bent will likely be less painful and more comfortable - in the long run contractures will be excruciatingly painful.
Hyperflexed refers to a joint or body part being bent to an extreme degree beyond its normal range of motion. This can put strain on the muscles and ligaments surrounding the joint and may increase the risk of injury.
Single joint muscles are muscles that cross and act on only one joint. They are primarily responsible for producing movement at that specific joint, such as the biceps muscle that crosses the elbow joint to bend the forearm.
No, you should not be able to move your kneecaps around by flexing the muscles in your thigh. The kneecap is a small bone that is designed to move in a specific groove in the knee joint when the leg is bent or straightened. Trying to move the kneecap by flexing the thigh muscles can cause strain on the knee joint.
