   Why are muscles and bones important?

   • Muscles and bones give your body form and structure and allow you to move around. They are part of your musculoskeletal system, which consists of: Your body has hundreds of different muscles and bones. Some are very large, such as the large muscles and bone in your thigh. Others are very small, such as the muscles and bones in your fingers.

   Where does a skeletal muscle attach to a bone?

   • A skeletal muscle attaches to bone (or sometimes other muscles or tissues) at two or more places. If the place is a bone that remains immobile for an action, the attachment is called an origin. If the place is on the bone that moves during the action, the attachment is called an insertion.

   What is the relationship between muscle and skeleton?

   • For muscles attached to the bones of the skeleton, the connection determines the force, speed, and range of movement. These characteristics depend on each other and can explain the general organization of the muscular and skeletal systems. The skeleton and muscles act together to move the body.

   Do muscles and Bones work together?

   • The same principle holds true for bones, although the changes are less noticeable. Not only do muscles and bones both respond to exercise, but the changes in both of them happen in tandem. That’s because muscles and bones work together to make your body move—and for maximum efficiency, muscle and bone strength need to be balanced.

   Why are skeletal muscles important?

   • As well as helping you to move, these muscles also help generate heat in the body, protect organs and help maintain your posture. Skeletal muscles are usually attached to the bone by tendons. When you want to move, your brain tells a muscle to contract, it shortens, pulling one bone towards another across a joint.

   How does the muscular system work with the skeleton?

   • The muscular system works in conjunction with the skeleton to produce movement of the limbs and body. Ligaments and tendons are two main types of connective tissues that help the muscular-skeletal system produce movements. Ligaments: Tendons: The muscles contract to pull on the bones to produce movements.

   The skeleton is the central structure of the body and is made up of bones, joints and cartilage. The skeleton provides the framework for muscles and gives the body its defined human shape.

   Bones, muscles and joints make up your musculoskeletal system. Bones give your bodies shape, protect organs and store minerals like calcium. The many different joints in your body connect bones and allow you to move. Muscles help control your movements and some body systems, such as digestion.
