Study Notes
Muscular System Functions
- The main function of the muscular system is to move the body's bones and maintain posture.
Musculoskeletal System Components
- The musculoskeletal system consists of the muscular system and the skeletal system working together.
Muscle Movements
- Muscle movements can be categorized as either isotonic or isometric contractions.
- Isotonic contractions involve muscle shortening, resulting in movement of the bone.
- Isometric contractions involve muscle tension without muscle shortening or movement.
Skeletal System Functions
- The skeletal system provides support and protection for the body.
- The skeletal system is responsible for blood cell production, specifically in the bone marrow.
Skeletal System Functions Exceptions
- The skeletal system does not play a role in movement or muscle contraction.
