One of the reasons Britain became rich was because the Industrial Revolution (factories and such) got off the ground there sooner. Britain had a large navy, and many colonies in other parts of the world, such as India, and Rhodesia.
Full Muscles of the Arm and Hand Description. The muscles of the upper arm are responsible for the flexion and extension of the forearm at the elbow joint. Flexion of the forearm is achieved by a group of three muscles â the brachialis, biceps brachii, and brachioradialis.uscles of the Arm and Hand. The muscles of the arm and hand are specifically designed to meet the bodyâs diverse needs of strength, speed, and precision while completing many complex daily tasks.
It isn't. The triceps brachii muscle (which is actually a group of three muscles) is the strongest set of muscles in the arm and accounts for nearly 60% of the upper arm's mus â¦ cle mass.The triceps are primarily responsible for the extension of the elbow joint (straitening of the arm). For instance to bend and close the arm at the elbow, the flexor muscles (biceps) contract while the opposing triceps relax. And then to straighten the arm, the triceps (extensor muscles) will contract while the biceps relax.   Rotator muscles work together to turn and twist the arm.
