Internally, muscles generate force as they contract and bones generate movement. Which statement accurately represents how forces affect motion in organisms?
When a muscle relaxes, it applies a pulling force on a bone, causing it to move.
When a bone relaxes, it applies a pushing force on a muscle, causing it to move.
When a muscle contracts, it applies a pulling force on a bone, which causes movement
When a bone contracts, it applies a pushing force on a muscle, which causes movement.

demonstrates an organ providing a force?
