Pulling and contracting is how a muscle moves the bones ....
Tendons join muscle to bone, and muscles sometimes attach to each other. They are called functional muscle groups, or synergists.
Muscle cells.
Well, yes but bones have no nerve stimulus so respond to muscle movement.
Pulling and contracting is how a muscle moves the bones ....
Skeletal muscle has a direct effect on bones. When skeletal muscles contract, they pull on the bones to create movement at the joints. This movement is essential for activities such as walking, running, and lifting.
If you think about it, skeletal muscle are muscles that connect bones. So wherever you have bone, it is covered with skeletal muscle. Muscles do not connect bones. Muscles are the source for movement and protection for bones.
The upper arm is primarily composed of skeletal muscle. Specifically, muscles such as the biceps brachii and triceps brachii are responsible for movement and stability in the upper arm. These muscles are attached to the bones by tendons and are under voluntary control.
This can be answered on several different levels, but let me take the simpliest.Major types of muscles:Skeletal - associated with bones - see more info below.Cardiac - muscle of the heart specializing in electrical communicationViseral or Smooth - lines all tubes and has the movement called peristalsisSkeletal Muscle movement associated with diarthritic joints: Hinge Joint - movement is extension or flexionCondyloid Joint - movement is pronation or supinationBall & Socket Joint - abduction & adduction are the first of many movements.Pivot Joint - movement is rotationAnd the list goes on. . . .
all muscles pull on bones to create movement, since muscles are contractile and bone is rigid. the muscle attaches to the bone via the tendon.
There are over 200 bones in the human body, and many of them are used in voluntary movement. Joints connect these bones, allowing for smooth and controlled movement. Muscle contractions pull on the bones to produce the desired motion.
