Detailed explanation-1: -Muscles that work together may be agonist muscles, antagonist muscles, or fixator muscles. Agonist muscles are sets of muscles in which some of them contract while others relax. They produce movements through their own contraction and are responsible for generating specific movements.
Detailed explanation-2: -Agonist muscles produce the primary movement or series of movements through their own contractions. To generate a movement, agonist muscles must physically be arranged so that they cross a joint by way of the tendon. Contraction will move limbs associated with that joint.
Detailed explanation-3: -We describe the main muscle that does an action as the agonist. It is sometimes also called the “prime mover”. Many actions in the body do have one muscle that is responsible for more of the work in that action than any other muscle.
