Most Muscles Cross at Least One

Question

Most muscles cross at least one
A) tendon.
B) joint.
C) bone.
D) ligament.
E) body plane.

Accepted Answer

Most muscles need to cross over a joint in order to create movement. Without a point of attachment at a joint, muscles would not be able to contract and produce force to move bones or other body parts. Tendons, ligaments, and bones can also play important roles in the body's movement and stabilization, but crossing over a joint is essential for muscle function.
