How do muscles help the skeleton?
Skeletal muscles move the body; referred to as ambulation. There are 4 primary functions of skeletal muscle: 1.Movement 2.Posture or muscle tone 3.Support 4.Heat regulation
How muscles work with bones to make joints move?
when you choose to move a pair of muscles work together, 1 contracts and 1 relaxes therefore making the body part move
What are three jobs of our skeleton?
1. Holds the body in the upright position providing support 2. Protects all the organs (think of your brain being protected by the skull) 3. Muscles are attached to bones which contract and relax and allow you to move
What are three major functions of the human skeleton?
1. To keep your skin from flapping around like a kite in a strong wind, 2. As something your muscles can graft to so you can move, 3. To protect your internal organs (E.g. ribcage).
What are three types of musclues?
1.Smooth Muscles- which is located in the organs of the digestive system and blood vessels2.Cardiac Muscles-located in the your heart3.Muscle Tissue-in your heart which is called Cardiac Muscles
What type of tissue works to move food along the digestive tract?
Peristalsisis a radially symmetrical contraction and relaxation of muscles which propagates in a wave down the muscular tube, in an anterograde fashion. In humans, peristalsis is found in the contraction of smooth muscles to propel contents through the digestive tract. Earthworms use a similar mechanism to drive their locomotion.[1] The word is derived from New Latin and comes from the Greek peristallein, "to wrap around," from peri-, "around" +stallein, "to place".
What is your skeleton an example of?
No, skeleton is not a cell.However ,there are cells in it.
Why must skeletal muscles work in pair?
1 muscle works 2 move it 1 way, another works 2 move it the other way.
What is the difference between skeltal muscles and cardiac muscles?
1 is connected also the cardiac muscles are the only of its kind to make the heart move and pump blood to where it needs to go. smooth muscles are conected to the bones.
Where do most muscles that move the thigh originate at?
well there are many muscles that can move the femur in one way or another. 1 of the quadriceps can move the femur (rectus femoris) which attaches to the front of the ilium. All 3 hamstring muscles can move the femur backwards and all attach to the ischial tuberosity. The adductor muscles can move the thigh and all 3 attach to the pubis.
Give three reasons why you have a skeleton?
1) The skeletal system provides solid support to attach muscles to so that your muscles can do useful work. 2) The skeletal system protects your internal organs, in particular the ribcage and skull provide this benefit. 3) The skeletal system creates new red and white blood cells for your body.
What are the 3 main jobs that your skeleton does?
1) give you a shape. 2) allow you to move. 3) provide a home for your blood forming tissues.
