20
Q

Bíceps

A

Bends your arm at the elbow
Drawing back a bow in archery

21
Q

Triceps

A

Straightens your arm at the elbow
Releasing a javelin or a ball

22
Q

Latissimus Dorsi

A

Pulls your arm down at the shoulder. Draws it behind your back.
Swimming strokes

23
Q

Abdominal

A

Flexes your spine so that you can bend forwards . Create a pull in the abdomen

24
Q

Hip flexors

A

Supports movement of the leg and knee upwards
Lifting the knees during a sprint

25
Gluteaks
Pulls your leg back at the hip. Raise it sideways at the hip. The biggest of the gluteal muscles is the gluteus Maximus
26
Quadriceps
Straighten me the leg at the knee. Keeps the leg straight to stand up Getting elevation in a high jump
27
Hamstring
Bends the leg at the knee Pulling back of the knee before kicking ball
28
Gastrocnemius
Straightens the ankle joint so you can stand up on your tiptoes take off for a lay up in basketball
29
Tibialis anterior
Helps with dorsiflexion the action of pulling the foot towards the shin walking tuning or toe kicking a ball
30
Tendon
Though band of fibrous tissue that anchors muscles to a bone and allows movement to happen
31
Regular exercise benefits in the muscular system
Muscles increase in size and strength Prompts stability and good posture.
32
Origin
Where a muscle joins a stationary bone
33
Insertion
Where a muscle joins a moving bone
34
Antagonistic muscle act John
Muscle action where muscle works in pair when one muscle contracts the other relaxes
35
Agonist
The primer mover contracts to create movement
36
Antagonistic
Relaxed as the agonist contracts to allow movement
37
Antagonistic pair
The agonist and the antagonist combined. One contacts the other relaxes
38
Ex of antagonistic muscle action During the upward phase of a bicep curl
The biceps contracts creating flexion at the elbow The triceps relaxed allowing movement to occur
39
Ex kicking a football
The quadriceps contract creating a flexion at the knee The hamstrings relax allowing movement to occur
40
Ex long jump take off
The gastrocnemius contracts creating plantar flexion at the ankle The Tibialis anterior relaxes allowing movement to occur
41
Isometric
The muscle contracts but stays the same length Ex) deltoids contract isometrically when holding the bar above your head during an Olympic lift
42
Isotonic
Muscle change length as they contract
43
Isotonic two types
Concentric Eccentric
44
Concentric
The muscles shortens while it contracts The triceps shorten as they contract creating extension at the elbow when shooting in basketball
45
Eccentric
The muscle lengthens while it contracts Ex) the quadriceps lengthen as. They contract allowing flexion at the knee during the downward phase of a squat
