1) Skeletal - made up of bones‚ joints and discs. Their function is to give shape to‚ allow movement and give protection to the body. The skeleton bones have 6 parts - Skull (cranium and face)‚ vertebral column (cervical‚ thoracic‚ lumbar‚ sacral‚ coccygeal)‚ thorax‚ shoulder girdle ( clavicle and scapula)‚ pelvis (ilium‚ ischium‚ pubis) ‚ upper limbs (humerus‚ radius‚ ulna‚ carpal‚ metacarpal‚ phalanges) and lower limbs ( femur‚ tibia‚ fibula‚ tarsal‚ metatarsals‚ phalanges).

A contraction is a change in a muscle by which it becomes thickened and shortened after the brain sends signals to nerve cells telling them do contract a specific muscle or muscles. Surprisingly‚ a contraction is a complex human action and reaction‚ yet it is such a breeze to understand the basic meaning of the word.

found in animals: connective‚ muscle‚ nervous‚ and epithelial. We are going to go into muscle tissue. The cells of muscle tissues are called fibers. There are three types of muscle tissue and they are skeletal‚ cardiac‚ and smooth. All types can go though hypertrophy (enlargement or overgrowth of an organ or part of the body due to the increased size of the constituent cells). Muscle fibers contract due to the interaction of the contractile proteins‚ actin and myosin. Muscle contraction generates contractile

1. Explain the relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems. The relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems is that we are made up of bones all throughout our body and we need this to stand and hold our body together‚ similar to the skeletal system the muscular system is made up of soft tissue and is lined all over our body. We could not stand without the system as well. 2. Why is the circulatory system important? This system is important because it is used to circulate blood

Skeletal‚ Muscular‚ and Integumentary System The Muscular System Our muscular system provides the main source of force to put our bodies into motion. More than 40% of our body mass is composed of muscle. Types of Muscular Tissue There are three types of muscle tissue: 1. Skeletal Voluntary movement‚ attached to bones. 2. Smooth Involuntary movement‚ found in digestive tract‚ circulatory system‚ etc. 3. Cardiac Involuntary movement‚ found only in heart. Muscle Contraction Skeletal Muscle

I know that skeletal disease pertain to the bones in the body. These can be deadly and limit the ability to move around and have a good‚ solid range of motion. I know that skeletal diseases are treated by orthopedics diagnose and treat disorders with bones and orthopedic surgeons operate on the bones. I would like to know what the range of treatments are based upon the diseases. I also would like to know the statistics on skeletal disease and how common it is within America and other countries‚

muscular and skeletal systems play a very important role in the body. They help each other perform functions for the entire body. The muscular system and the skeletal system are the basis of the body structure. The muscular system generally produces movement. The skeletal basically provides the necessary support for these systems to work together. The skeletal system has many organs. Some organs include bones‚ cartilage‚ and ligaments. Teeth are also considered a part of the skeletal system but
