One function of the muscular system is to regulate constant body temperature. How does the system accomplish this?
Muscles need ATP to contract and receives ATP from cellular respiration, which is an exothermic reaction and helps to maintain the temperature through muscle contractions.
Muscles need Calcium to contract and receives it from hematopoiesis, which is an endothermic reaction and gives off heat when muscles contract which helps to maintain body temperature.
Muscles need ATP to contract and receives ATP from neurons, which uses action potential as an exothermic reaction to heat the muscles to a certain temperature before contracting.
Muscles need Calcium to contract and receives it from neurons, which use action potential as an endothermic reaction to give off heat when muscles contract.
