Study Notes

Muscles

Skeletal muscles are responsible for most visible body movements.
Muscle contraction produces 85% of the body's heat.

Bones

Ossification is the process of bone formation.
Ossification occurs in two ways: intramembranous and endochondral ossification.
The manubrium is the most superior portion of the sternum.

Anatomy

The cloaca a common chamber in the urinary, reproductive, and digestive systems in some animals.
The bladder and urethra ultimately derive from the cloaca.
