Question 10

Term for study of muscular activity with resulting bodyparts movement

Answer 10

Kinesiology

Question 11

How do antagonistic muscle pairs work

Answer 11

They work in opposition

Question 12

How do muscles relax and contract. Describe length and shape of the muscle

Answer 12

As muscle contract they become shorter causing the belly(center) of the muscle to enlarge
As muscles relax they return to original state of being longer, thinner, and belly is no longer enlarged

Answer 32

Bends foot upward at ankle

Question 33

Plantar flexion of the foot

Answer 33

Bends foot downward at the ankle

Question 34
