Question

How do the skeletal and muscular systems interact?

Answer 1

Hint: The skeletal system works as an inner framework of the body and gives a structure to the body and also helps in the protection of the organs and the muscular system is the system of the muscles which helps in the movement of the body and maintain the posture.

Complete answer:
1)Interaction takes place when there is a change in the angle of a joint and it is also important to move the skeleton to which muscles are attached and the point is being pulled which leads to the musculoskeletal interaction.

2)When movement takes place then the number of muscles get interacted with each other but the principle muscle which is involved in the movement is known as the prime mover.

3)A synergist is a muscle that stabilizes the bone that is attached to the prime mover is also known as a fixator for example a muscle called biceps is used to lift a cup as this muscle is the prime mover and is assisted by the synergist muscle in the action so this muscle and bone interaction shows the work of skeletal as well as the muscular system.

4)In joints When sensory receptors in bones send the signal to the brain about the movements then it leads to the controlling of muscle contraction between skeletal muscles.

5)The basic function of the musculoskeletal system is that both bones and muscles work together and provide support, protection, and movement to the body, to allow motion in the body and pulling and contracting movements in the bone.

Note: The musculoskeletal system is the main system in the internal body of an organism which also helps in preventing some disorders and diseases by protecting and supporting each other in the internal system.
