Solution

The correct option is A
True

Muscles always work in pairs.

So, when one of them contracts, the bone is pulled in that direction, while the other muscle of the pair relaxes.

To move the bone in the opposite direction, the relaxed muscle then contracts to pull the bone towards its original position, while the contracted muscle relaxes.
