The image shows how the muscles help in the movement of the arm. Based on the image, what will be the length of the muscles during bending?
Both bicep and triceps relax
Both bicep and triceps contracts
The bicep contracts while triceps relax
The bicep relaxes while triceps contracts
Muscles work in pairs. They contract and relax simultaneously. How does this help an individual?
It assists in the formation of the bones.
It prevents any injury to the internal organs.
It allows the movement of bones at the joints.
It helps in the absorption of nutrients in the body.
How does the structure of the skeleton system support the body?
It protects the outer skin of the body from any injury.
It provides a framework that gives shape to the body.
It provides the site for storing all the nutrients in the body.
It allows free movement of all the bones during locomotion.
