Muscular System Functions

The muscular system has many jobs in the body.
Some muscles help to move the body by working together with the nervous system and the skeletal system. Muscles attach to bones with the help of tendons.
Cardiac muscles in the heart help to pump blood, allowing it to move throughout the circulatory system.
In the digestive system, smooth muscles help to move food through the intestines.
