  1. The Muscular System By Gracson Byrd

  2. Organs Tendons Ligaments Skeletal muscles Smooth muscles Cardiac muscles

  4. Ligaments • Connect bone to bone • Several in your body

  5. Interactions • Skeletal system • Includes bones and skeletal muscles • The closest interaction the Muscular system has • They’re connected by tendons • Both systems are dependent on each other

  6. Interactions cont… • Digestive/Excretory/ Respiratorysystem • Includes intestines, other organs, and smooth muscles • Smooth muscles help push digested and undigested food through the intestines • Digestive/Excretory system relies on muscular system.

  7. Interactions cont… • Cardiovascular system • Includes heart and cardiac muscles • Cardiac muscles pump the heart • Both systems are dependent on each other
