that are put together; muscular and skeletal. The organs that are in these systems are skeletal muscles‚ bones (joints‚ tendons‚ and ligaments). By dividing the two systems into different sections‚ it will make it easier for you‚ the reader‚ to understand and make sense of the information. The muscular system functions are to provide movement‚ protects organs‚ and production of heat. There are many muscles that do different functions. Before I go into all of the muscular functions‚ I will give

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN POISE AND POSTURE Posture and Poise Good Posture or Good Use? For many people‚ the Alexander Technique is closely associated with cultivating good posture. However the term posture is inadequate to convey what it is the Alexander Technique aims to improve. When it comes to posture‚ it is generally assumed that more uprightness is better and crooked is bad. There is relative truth in this. But striving for uprightness only brings about misuse in another guise: the straining

Joints are essential in allowing movement of the human body. They are located at the intersection of bones‚ and their structures determine the type of movement that will occur at that location. Each joint contains components of the skeletal and muscular systems and connective tissues that function together to allow movement to occur. A ball-and-socket joint is one example of a synovial joint. In a ball-and-socket joint‚ the round head of one bone rests within a cup-shaped depression in another

The muscular system is one of the most complex organ systems in the body‚ and it is imperative to the body’s survival‚ as it serves many significant functions‚ including movement‚ protection‚ posture‚ and heat production just to name a few. The muscular system has three types of muscle: skeletal‚ smooth‚ and cardiac. However‚ the main focus will be on the skeletal muscles and how they contract‚ as well as fatigue and respond to changes in temperature. In terms of the anatomy of the skeletal muscle
