What muscle action does the pulling represnt on chicken wing?

The action of pulling meat off a chicken wing is primarily performed by the long head of the triceps brachii muscle.

The triceps brachii is a three-headed muscle located at the back of the upper arm. It is responsible for extending (straightening) the elbow joint. The long head of the triceps originates from the scapula (shoulder blade) and inserts onto the ulna (one of the two forearm bones).

When the triceps brachii contracts, it pulls the ulna and extends the elbow joint. This action is essential for many movements, including reaching, throwing, and grasping. In the case of pulling meat off a chicken wing, the triceps brachii is used to pull the wing away from the body.

Additionally, the other two heads of the triceps brachii, the lateral and medial heads, also contribute to the extension of the elbow joint. The lateral head originates from the humerus (upper arm bone) and inserts onto the ulna, while the medial head originates from the humerus and inserts onto both the ulna and the radius (the other forearm bone).
