New cards
97

Animals may respond to sensory stimuli by_______

movement bc Movement in animals is accomplished by muscles – made of CONTRACILE cells initiated by nerve impulses. for locomotion muscles need skeleton to RESIST COMPRESSION such as : internal, external, or hydrostatic, -parallel bundles -Contraction shortens these fibers, resulting in movement

New cards
98

Muscle contraction is a ______ force why? what is differ between triceps and biceps?

PULLING force bc Because muscles work by contraction, they can only pull and Antagonistic pairs of muscles, such as biceps and triceps allow for motion in opposite directions. biceps flex and triceps extends .

New cards
99

why is skeleton contraction important ?

Without a skeleton contraction would merely result in shortening/collapse of the relevant body region and humans and vertebrates reply on hydrostatic support in the discs in spine.
