Solution

The correct option is A True
Muscles work in pairs. When one of them contracts, the bone is pulled in that direction and the other muscle of the pair relaxes. To move the bone in the opposite direction, the relaxed muscle contracts and the first one relaxes. Thus two muscles have to work together to move a bone.
