Question 1 Report

Name the muscle that is found at the front of the upper arm and is responsible for bending the elbow. [1]

Answer Details

Muscle at the front of the upper arm

The muscle at the front of the upper arm responsible for bending (flexing) the elbow is the biceps (biceps brachii). When the biceps contracts, it pulls the forearm toward the upper arm, decreasing the angle at the elbow joint. This is the primary muscle used in movements such as lifting, pulling, and carrying.
