Answer: Flexion

Explanation: Flexion is the medical term for bending an arm or leg. Technically speaking, it's a physical position that decreases the angle between the bones of the limb at a joint. It occurs when muscles contract and move your bones and joints into a bent position.

Match each characteristic to the type of muscle it describes.
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Left image: striated, voluntary

Right image: visceral, smooth, involuntary

Explanation:

The image you attached shows two kinds of muscles: the skeletal muscle <em>(left side) </em>and the smooth muscle <em>(right side).</em>

The "skeletal muscle" is the muscle responsible for the body's<em> voluntary movements.</em> Their fibers appear<em> striated, tubular </em>and <em>multinucleated</em>. They are attached to the skeleton.

The "smooth muscle," like the cardiac muscle, is the muscle responsible for the body's <em>involuntary movements. </em>Its fibers are <em>nonstriated</em> and <em>nonnucleated. </em>They can be found in the<u> wall of hollow organs</u> like <em>urinary bladder, uterus, intestines, etc.</em>
