MuscularSystem BY: Slyder Welch
Made up of? Muscles & Tendons
Important because? • Holds organs in place. • Holds the bones together, so that you can move. • Helps you chew food. • Pumps blood throughout the body. • There are even MORE!!!
Functions? • The functions of the muscular system, are to allow the body to move it also provides strength, balance, and warmth. • If you did not have the muscular system you would not be able to do the daily needs. As in drive your car, write, and walk. So it impacts a huge part in your daily life! • It also helps you stay breathing, because it plays a part in the respiratory system. Basically the body has to have all systems to work, but one of the main ones I think will have to be the muscular system.
Other systems it Interacts with? • The Muscular System interacts with many other systems. Like the respiratory system, circulatory system, skeletal system, and the digestive system.
Diseases? • Muscular Dystrophy- causes damage to the muscle fibers. • Cerebral Palsy- motor functions, and balance are affected. • Polymyositis-weakness in the muscles. • Dermatomyositis-leads to muscle and skin inflammation.
Organs? • Lungs- the muscular system is helping the lungs, it keeps the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen. • Heart- the heart helps by transporting blood throughout the body, but it has to pump to do that. So the muscular system helps it out.
Fun Facts!!! • Feel your tendon right above your heel in the back of your leg. • This is the thickest tendon in your body!! TRY THIS!
FYI: How to get muscles stronger? • Eat foods from the meat department everyday, they are high in protein and help keep strong muscles!
Conclusion! • Muscles are how you get through your day. Walking, eating, and etc…, but you have to help them, to help you!!! • WELL HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!!
