Question

An agonist for elbow flexion is ________, whereas the ________ is an antagonist to this movement. an agonist for elbow flexion is ________, whereas the ________ is an antagonist to this movement. triceps brachii, brachialis deltoid, biceps brachii biceps brachii, triceps brachii brachioradialis, deltoid

Answer 1

The answer is "biceps brachii, triceps brachii".

An agonist for elbow flexion is biceps brachii, whereas the triceps brachii is an antagonist to this movement.

The triceps brachii muscle is an expansive muscle on the back of the upper limb of numerous vertebrates. It is the muscle mainly in charge of extension of the elbow joint and biceps brachii is a two-headed muscle which is present on the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. The two heads emerge on the scapula and join to shape a solitary muscle midsection which is appended to the upper lower arm.
