Summary Introduction
To determine:
The interaction of the muscular system with the nervous system, skeletal system, respiratory system, and circulatory system.
Introduction:
A muscular system is composed of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles. The muscular system permits the circulation of blood, and maintains the posture and movement of the body.
