Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The movement of the human body takes place with the help of the muscles. It is a soft tissue, which helps in functioning the locomotion of the body. There are three types of muscles which are distinguished as skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles based on their role and location where it is involved. The muscle balance is determined by the flexors and extensors which comes under the skeletal muscle category. The muscles responsible for the to and fro movement of the body during an action are collectively called as flexors and extensors.
