Common diseases and disorders.
• Three common Diseases and Disorders of the
Muscular system is called a Compartment
Syndrome is a very common disorder that builds up
inside around the body’s muscle and resulting
crushing injuries.
• Rhabdomlyosis is another common disease that
can damage both muscle and kidneys by casing the
fiber in the muscle to slowly break down. Muscular
Dystrophy is a disease that can cause the muscles
to be damaged.
Parts of the system and their jobs.
 The muscular system is important because it is needed
to exercise and move.
 Biceps which is called the bra chi muscle is the upper
arm-front side, it has seven functions but the most
important is to rotate the forearm and to flex the elbow
Pectorals is the chest muscle which is called the pecks it
is used for pushups it is a thin triangular muscle.

Brachiradilis is a muscle of the forearm and its
functions is that is flexes the arm at the elbows.
Gastramemius muscle which is called the calf muscle
is a powerful muscle that is in the back of the leg, its
functions is used for standing, walking, running and
jumping.
Gluteus Maximums is a muscle that is the largest and
most superficial muscle. (It is the part of the buttocks)
its function is used for sitting.
Parts and its Jobs

The muscular system is important because it serves
many important functions it provides the shape and
form of our body in addition to supporting and
protecting blood for the body and strong minerals for
the body to survive.
The muscular system is important because if the
human body had no skeletal system, muscular system
we would not be able to move. Adenosine
triphosphate- High energy molecule found in every
cell of the body. Adenosine is needed for the body to
have energy to move and work.
Why the Muscular system is
Important to the Body
 The Muscular system is important to the body
because in order to survive, you’ll need to move
around be able to walk and run, stand, and do
exercises.
 The human body contains more than 650 individual
muscles which are attached to the skeleton. Which
provide the power for us for us to move around.
 The muscular system consists three different types
of muscles tissues. Skeletal, and Cardiac. Each
different tissue has the ability to contract then it
follows body movements and functions. There are 2
types of involuntary muscles in the system that allow
us to move around and control ourselves to move.
Functions of the system and the
parts.
• The definition of the muscular system is the anatomical
system of a species that allows it to move. The muscular
system in vertebrates is controlled through the nervous
system.
• Although some muscles (such as the cardiac muscle) and can
be complete autonomous. The functions of the muscular
system are heart muscles, skeletal muscles, and non strained
muscles.
• They are provided by strength, balance, posture and
movement in the heart for the body to keep us warm.
Functions and the parts of the
system
• The muscular system is a type of muscle system that
controls your balance, posture. The muscular system
is the system in your body that you need in order to
move around.
• The muscular system also keeps your body warm by
your heart protecting. The muscular system is
controlled through the nervous system.
