Muscles allow a person to move, speak, and chew. They control heartbeat, breathing, and digestion. Other seemingly unrelated functions, including temperature regulation and vision, also rely on the muscular system.]]> 2022-03-01 09:11:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071098267 Muscles provide the tug on the bones needed to bend, straighten, and support joints. Muscles can pull on bones, but they can't push them back to their original position, so the muscles work in pairs of flexors and extensors. The extensor muscle relaxes and stretches as the flexor muscle contracts to bend the joint. https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071099488 2022-03-01 09:12:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071099488 The muscles in your upper and lower legs work together to help you move, support your body's weight and allow you to have good posture.

They also help you with small movements, like wiggling your toes.29 Dec 2021Leg Muscles: Anat https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071100318 2022-03-01 09:13:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071100318 https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071101238 The muscular system is composed of specialized cells called muscle fibers. Their predominant function is contractibility. Muscles, attached to bones or internal organs and blood vessels, are responsible for movement. Nearly all movement in the body is the result of muscle contraction.]]> 2022-03-01 09:13:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071101238 https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071101675 2022-03-01 09:14:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071101675 https://padlet.com/jonesha13/upidvijozn51a216/wish/2071102468 Movement
