The Boundaries: The Study Of Muscles

Muscles work in pairs. one muscle contracts and pulls on the bones to which they are attached, in other word, Tendons which are fibrous connective tissue, muscle are attached to bones by tendons. The muscles contract to allow movement, while the skeletal gives the muscles support. The muscles and bones move together, basically with the muscles contracting the bones. The bone can not move back to its original state until another muscle pulls on it. Muscles work together to produce movement by one contracting and another relaxing. Skeletal system is covered with muscles that enable movement. These muscles are attached to the bones through tendons and often stretch from one end of the bone to the other. The bones and muscles work together through a series of impulse and signals communication between the brain and skeletal muscles. In order to move, the nervous system signals to skeletal muscle to contract, when the muscle contracts, this causes the skeletal to move, (involuntary muscles) and the movement is called spasms. The muscles are attached to bones (or bones). (Ligaments) are strong fibrous connective tissue that attach bone to bone. …show more content…
When the specified muscle shortens, it pulls on the corresponding bone at its insertion point. The contraction shortens the distance of the angle between the articulating bones, with the joint acting as the fulcrum. Upon receiving the signal to relax, the muscle opposing the contracted muscle will then act to extend the movable bone back to it original position.
The skeletal system provides structure for the muscular system to move. For example, if you hold your arm straight and bend the elbow, you will your bicep move up your arm.
Without the skeletal system the body would be like a blob on the
