The right answer is flexion.


Flexion is a movement of folding or contraction of a muscle.


The flexor muscle is a muscle which, when active, leads to flexion, that is to say, a movement bringing the two segments of a limb together as opposed to an extension. For example, the biceps is a flexor muscle that brings the forearm closer to the arm.
