Question
the forearm acts as a third - class lever during flexion of the elbow. true or false
Brief Explanations
In the flexion of the elbow, the forearm indeed acts as a third - class lever. The elbow joint is the fulcrum, the biceps muscle applies the effort force close to the fulcrum, and the load (such as the weight of the forearm and anything held in the hand) is at the end of the forearm, farther from the fulcrum.
