Question

(ii) They work in pairs.
(iii) They are attached to the bones

Answer 1

Answer:

I is the correct Answer

Answer 2

Answer:

All the given options are correct.

Explanation:

• There are various muscles in the thighs.
• We can bend and extend our hips and knees with the aid of our quadriceps and hamstrings.
• Legs are brought closer to one another by the adductor muscles. You can flex and rotate your thighs at the hip joints thanks to the pectineus and sartorius muscles.
• Some of the largest muscles in the body are found in the thighs.
• The lower body's ability to flex, twist, and bend is due to the thigh muscles.
• In addition to supporting and assisting with balance, they also carry the majority of the body's weight and maintain hip and leg alignment.
• In the area between the shoulder and elbow joints, there are five muscles collectively referred to as the (upper) arm muscles.
• Between the shoulder and elbow joints is where the upper arm is placed. There are four muscles in it: one in the back and three in the front (biceps brachii, brachialis, and coracobrachialis) (triceps brachii).

Arm and thigh muscles are joined to bones, function in pairs, and contract and relax to produce movement.
