Muscle System Functions • Provides voluntary movement of body • Enables breathing, blinking, and smiling • Allows you to hop, skip, jump, or do push-ups • Maintains posture • Produces heat
Functions Continued • Causes heart beat • Directs circulation of blood • Regulates blood pressure • Sends blood to different areas of the body
Functions Continued • Provides movement of internal organs • Moves food through digestive tract • Enables bladder control • Causes involuntary actions • Reflex actions • Adjusts opening of pupils • Causes hair to stand on end ( )
Is made up of contractile fibers Provides movement Controlled by the nervous system Voluntary- consciously controlled Involuntary- not under conscious control Examples Skeletal Smooth Cardiac Muscle Tissue Characteristics Skeletal Smooth Cardiac
Types of Muscle Tissue • There are three main types of muscle tissue • Skeletal(striated) • Cardiac(heart) • Smooth(visceral)

Muscles originate on a _____bone in our body, cross over a ______, and insert onto a ______ bone. It is important to understand that all muscles move from the ________ point going toward the __________ point. It is because of the placement of the muscles that we can move. Muscle Movement fixed joint moving insertion origination
