Where are the three types of muscles located in your body?
Skeletal muscle or "voluntary muscle" is anchored by tendons (or by aponeuroses at a few places) to bone and is used to effect skeletal movement such as locomotion and in maintaining posture. Though this postural control is generally maintained as an unconscious reflex, the muscles responsible react to conscious control like non-postural muscles.Smooth muscle or "involuntary muscle" can be found in the walls of organs and organ systems such as the digestive, urinary and respiratory systems. This muscle is not under conscious control.Cardiac muscle is also involuntary, but is similar to the skeletal muscle, and only found in the heart.
What is the main organ of the muscular system?
the main organ of the muscular system is the muscles
What organ system hamstring belong?

Which type of muscle tissue forms organs of the body?
There are three types of muscles and they all form organs. There is cardiac muscle which forms the heart (an organ of the cardiovascular system), skeletal musclewhich form what are called muscles (organ that move the bones) and smooth muscle which form all hollow organs except the heart.
Which organ system controls te movement of the muscle system?
The organ system that controls the movement of the muscle system is known as the skeletal system.
What are the organs for the muscular system?

What are the organs of the muscular system?
A complete muscle, consisting of muscle fibers, connective tissue, nerve tissue, and blood tissue, is considered one organ by itself. The different organs in the muscular system include cardiac muscles, smooth muscles and skeletal muscles. There are roughly 600 organs in the muscular system, and these muscles make up about 40 percent of the body. These organs can be divided into four major groups: the muscles of the lower extremity, the trunk muscles, the muscles of the upper extremity, and head-and-neck muscles. The main organs in the muscular system are muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The muscular system is made up of over 700 different muscles. These muscles are broken down into 3 specific types; visceral muscles, cardiac muscles, and skeletal muscles.
