Back

result of a muscle contraction depends on many variables, including:

Front

What the muscle is attached to Which end of the muscle is fixed The force of the contraction & the force of the resistance The simultaneous actions of other muscles associated with the same structure. eg, when the muscle contracts, it pulls toward the middle, exerting equal force on attachments at both ends in an attempt to pull them toward each other.Which bone moves depends on the relative stability of the bones at that particular time.Stability of a bone at a given time is determined by contractions of muscles acting as stabilizers.
