Muscle Types
- Skeletal muscle is attached to bones and allows movement
- Smooth muscle is located in various internal structures, including the digestive system
- Cardiac muscle is specific to the heart
- Cardiac muscle makes up the thick middle layer of the heart
- Muscles work with bones to move the body
- Smooth muscles move food through the digestive system
Skeletal System
- The skull protects the brain
- The rib cage protects the chest
- The rib cage contains the heart and lungs
- The humerus is the bone in the upper arm
- The femur is the large upper leg bone that connects the lower leg bones to the pelvic bone
- The vertebral column is also called the spinal column
- The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint
- The clavicle is a long, slightly curved bone that connects the arm to the body
- The vertebrae surround the spinal cord
Medicine
