If a person's muscles stop working, that person would be totally immobilized. Yes, falling down would definitely happen; but when you hit the ground, you would not be able to do a darn thing about it.

I'm no professional but i believe if it were to shut down we would be pretty much like jello like lets say your arms muscles didn't work they wouldn't get any workout and then you would lose it and it wouldn't be able to move the bone

The "muscular system" includes the heart, which is made up of a subtype of involuntary muscle (i.e., cardiac).

So simply stated, if a heart fails, a body's other systems - most specifically the brain - would quickly starve of oxygen, lose consciousness and die soon after.

So, if the muscular system failed, consciousness would immediately begin to fade, with the total loss of consciousness dependent upon a number of factors, e.g., species an general physical condition. Brain death would follow shortly after that. Furthermore, every other system in the body would soon starve of oxygen and fail.

The ONLY way a body could remain alive without a functioning muscular system would be by the use of a "heart-lung" machine.

What are the importance of the muscular system in the human body?

Without the muscular system- cardiac muscles, smooth muscles and skeletal muscles- we would be unable to move! And as the hear is a muscle (cardiac muscle) no blood would pump around out body. We also need the muscular system to absorb heat and shock, to breathe and to digest food. Also, the muscular system enables our organs to function. Without the muscular system, we would be a bag of bones, about as useful as the skeletons you find sitting at the back of a science classroom!
