A football player kicking a football is an example of a gross muscular skeletal muscle coordinating together to display the live-action potential of the chemistry between the functions of the nervous‚ muscular‚ and the skeletal system. For these actions to take place‚ the skeletal system must first be established and erected along with the cartilage‚ ligaments‚ and tendons attaching bones‚ muscle to bones‚ and articulation for movements. When a football player sprints on the field during a game

1. Explain the relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems. The relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems is that we are made up of bones all throughout our body and we need this to stand and hold our body together‚ similar to the skeletal system the muscular system is made up of soft tissue and is lined all over our body. We could not stand without the system as well. 2. Why is the circulatory system important? This system is important because it is used to circulate blood

Experiment 2: Skeletal Muscle ABSTRACT Frog skeletal muscle is used as an animal model to study muscle contraction. The objectives of this experiment is to demonstrate the physiological responses of skeletal muscle to electrical stimuli using frog gastrocnemius‚ to understand twitch‚ summation‚ tetanus and fatigue‚ to investigate the relationship between initial tension and force of contraction‚ to explore the differences between human and frog skeletal muscle. The threshold voltage is 0.4V. The

Skeletal muscle is a voluntary and striated muscle that attaches to the skeleton to allow control over posture and movement. Each skeletal muscle consists of bundles of muscles fibers called fascicles. These fascicles are composed of many individual muscle fibers or muscle cells that can be up to several millimeters long. These muscle fibers are composed of myofibrils‚ which are organized into thick filaments‚ myosin‚ and thin filaments‚ actin. These filaments are organized into repeating structures
