Anatomy Chapter 10 Muscular System what kind of tissues are all muscle tissues classified as? - Correct answercontractile tissues what are the three types of muscle tissue? - Correct answerskeletal, cardiac, smooth what's the only action muscles can do? - Correct answerpull, never push what is an agonist muscle? - Correct answerprime mover; major responsibility for producing specific movement what are the functional groups of muscles? - Correct answerprime movers (agonists), antagonists, synergists, and fixators what is an antagonist muscle?
