Muscle Questions

Published

I'm working on my lab assignment for A&P I, but there are two questions that I just can't seem to figure out. I would greatly appreciate anybody that could help me out.

Most flexor muscles are located on the ____ aspect of the body; most extensors are located _____. An exception to this generalization is the extensor-flexor musculature of the _____.

The bulk of a muscle tends to lie _____ to the part of the body it causes to move.

For the life of me, I can't figure out how I am supposed to answer these two questions. I've read through my chapter twice now and still can't find a suitable answer. I appreciate the help.
