How does the muscular system support the skeletal system?

Answer 1

1. The skeletal system works to support your body. Without your skeletal frame, you would be unable to move. Humans are vertebrates, meaning we have bony, articulated (jointed) endoskeletons. An endoskeleton is a frame within the body that offers support as it grows and develops. The skeletal system offers protection, support, blood cell formation, stores minerals and energy and aids movement.
2. Bones are made of connective tissue. Connective tissue is found all over your body and comes in different forms. Bones are mostly made up of collagen fibrils. Their surfaces are covered with special cells made of calcium compounds. This is what gives the bones their structure and strength.
3. Inside the bones, there are cells that contain fibers and ground substance. If you were to look at bone cells under a microscope, you would find tiny grains scattered throughout. As the cells develop, the calcium compounds inside crystallize. This creates bones as we know them: able to withstand great pressure and strength without breaking. Calcium and phosphorus are stored within your bones.
4. An interesting fact about the skeletal system is that in spite of its strength and ability to support, the tissue within bones is very light. Our skeletons comprise only about 18 percent of our body weight.
5. A human adult has a total of two hundred and six bones. Bones are considered to be living organs because they are made up of nerve, muscle and epithelial tissue, as well the connective tissue that binds everything together. If you were to look at the cross section of a long bone, such as your femur, you would see a shaft in the middle that is hollow. This central cavity contains either red or yellow marrow. Red is newly produced marrow. As bones age, the red marrow converts into yellow. This special, yellow marrow is an energy source.
6. Within the bones, red and white blood cells are produced, along with platelets. There is a fibrous sheath called a periosteum that contains blood vessels which supply oxygen and nutrients to the bone tissues. Blood vessels get in and out of the bones by little openings called nutrient canals.
7. As we develop, our bones grow with us. Hyaline cartilage produces lateral growth, which is later replaced by bone tissue. The bones add surface area through oppositional growth, which causes your bones to widen. The periosteum is responsible for secreting new bone tissue.
8. The skeletal system is covered with muscles that enable us to move. These muscles are attached to the bones through tendons and often stretch from one end of the bone to the other. Your bones and muscles work together through a series of impulses and signals communicated between the brain and skeletal muscles. In order to move, the nervous system signals a skeletal muscle to contract. When the muscle contracts, this movement causes the attached bone (or bones) to follow.

Answer 2

The skeleton is a frame. The muscles are attached to the frame by tendons. We flex out muscles and it moves our frame. Each part of the body that moves is controlled by the muscle above it. For example: when you flex your fingers it is controlled by the muscles in your hands, your hands are controlled by the muscles in your forearms, you forearms are controlled by the muscles in your upper arms and so on.

The muscular system supports and protects skeletal bones just like the skeletal bones support and protect the internal organs along with the muscular system. Tendons connect muscles to bone and ligaments connect bones to bones.

The skeletal system provides a series of rigid levers and various more complex structures throughout the body, while the muscular system applies force on these structures, by pulling on tendons. There are a variety of other connective tissues in the system, but I am fairly certain tendons are the ones connecting muscle to bone. A muscle can oly compress (pull) and decompress (relax), so without any bone it is reduced to a twitching mass of nothing-useful. On the other hand, bone itself is rigid and can not cause any significant force itself. Between the two systems, there is a usable model, with things that pull and things to pull on.

they both allow the body to frame itor move and protect the organs
The muscles contract or relax to create movement of the bones.... have you graduated 5th grade?

• The muscles in her leg relax and contract to move the bones.

The muscles insert themselves on the surface of the bones, efectively joining said bones. Then when the muscles contracts, the bones HAVE to get closer to each other, that's where the articulations come in: they serve as pivot points the bones can use as support for the movement.
Yes.

They work together, with the muscles contracting and pulling on tendons attached to bones, therefore pulling or pushing the bones to create movement.
They control movement of the body together The muscular system and the skeletal system work together to provide support and movement for the body.
Your muscles are connected to your bones by a material called cartilage. Cartilage is an extremely strong material that is impossible to tear. Think if cartilage as the glue from a hot glue gun.(It's even stronger than that) - That probably answers only part of the question. -
They both help work together for the movement and protection of the human body When the muscles contract, they pull on the bones they are attached to, moving the bone. Muscles can only contract, not push, so to move the bone the other way, another muscle contracts, to pull the bone. Muscles generally work in pairs. The skeletal system provides a frame for your body and the mucscular moves that frame.

Answer 3

The muscle contraction causes bones to move joints, muscles help protect bones.

Bones provide attachment sites for muscles; store Ca2+ for muscle function.
