The muscular system In the muscular system there are three

organs that we housed. There is the voluntary muscles There is the involuntary muscles There is the tendons

Muscular System Diagram

Voluntary Muscleso Voluntary muscles are the muscles that

allow you to run walk and move.o You need to be conscience for the

muscles to move.o These muscles are made of tiny strand

like fibers.o The muscles most commonly used as an

example for voluntary muscles are the biceps and triceps.

Involuntary Muscles I am the involuntary muscles. My job in my system is to do the

actions that you don’t need to think about.

Other organs that I work with are the heart and eyes.

The heart is an involuntary muscle

What are tendons They cushion the bone and swell when

hit Tendons are tightly wrapped around a

bone. They can be thick, thin, long, or short. They are located in the knee, hip, and

leg.

Diseases Our system is susceptible to a wide

variety of diseases Some are Muscular Dystrophy, Soft

tissue Sarcoma, and Bursitis. These disease can be extremely harmful

to our system so we ask that you take care of us since we are so important.

Fun facts There is muscles in the root of your hair. The hardest working muscle is in your

eye. It is harder to frown than smile The biggest muscle is the Gluteus

Maximus.

Why you need the muscular system In conclusion without us you would not be

able to do daily activities. With out tendons then bones will break easier With out involuntary muscles you would not

be able to live because your heart would not be pumping blood through your body nor would your lungs be able to pump air

And lastly with out the voluntary muscles there would be a lack of energy because you can not bring food to your body.

Questions Anybody ? We have explained this system as well

as we can but if there are any questions ask now.
