The muscular and skeletal systems play a very important role in the body. They help each other perform functions for the entire body. The muscular system and the skeletal system are the basis of the body structure. The muscular system generally produces movement. The skeletal basically provides the necessary support for these systems to work together. The skeletal system has many organs. Some organs include bones‚ cartilage‚ and ligaments.
