Muscular System (Second Edition)

Explains the structure and function of the muscular system, indicating that muscles account for nearly half the body's weight and are responsible for every external and internal movement. Uses diagrammatic animation to illustrate how electrical signals sent by the brain travel along nerves to striated, smooth, and cardiac muscles. Shows how muscle fibers respond by contracting and how these contractions pump blood through arteries and veins, push food through the digestive system, and move the skeleton.
