Which best describes the purpose of the muscular system?
The muscular system carries messages from the brain to the bones to move the body.

The muscular system produces energy the body needs to be able to move.
Timothy was playing soccer in a match on Saturday. He ran down the field, kicked the ball, and scored a goal for his team. Many of Timothy's body systems worked together to allow him to score the goal. How did his muscular system help him?
It broke down food into nutrients the body needs for energy and growth.
It brought air into the lungs to provide needed oxygen for the body.
It transported blood through the body to bring oxygen and nutrients to cells.
It worked with the skeletal system to produce movement.
How does the skeletal system work with the muscular system in the human body?
The skeletal system circulates blood through the arteries and veins that run through muscles.
The skeletal system removes waste products that build up in muscles during exercise.
The skeletal system provides support and solid structures where tendons and muscles can attach.
The skeletal system brings oxygen to muscle cells and carries away carbon dioxide.

What is the role of tendons in the muscular system?
To connect muscles to bones
