During contraction, myosin heads bind to actin molecules of the. thin filaments. Flexing of the myosin heads pulls the thin filaments over the thick. filaments - shortening the sarcomere. Muscle contraction requires.
There are more than a dozen muscles that maneuver the hip through extension and flexion. But rather than all the hip muscles firing at once to both extend and flex the hip, the muscles that contract in flexion, during which the extensors relax, are relaxed during extension while the extensors contract.Flexion occurs when the angle between articulating bones decreases, like when you flex your biceps.ut rather than all the hip muscles firing at once to both extend and flex the hip, the muscles that contract in flexion, during which the extensors relax, are relaxed during extension while the extensors contract.
