Muscles are the surrounding structures found around the bones within the body and beneath the skin. They are essential to the movement, motion, flexibility, and allow for basic functions of everyday life. The way they contract, relax, and flex reflect to the exterior portion of the body and is seen by others as expression and body movement. Muscles can be categorized into three groups, smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and skeletal muscle. Cardiac muscles surround the heart and are significant for contracting the heart, allowing for the pumping of blood throughout the body. The contractions made by the cardiac muscle are involuntary, which means that it has the

Most of the human body is made of bones and muscles. According to (Muscolino, 2011) the skeletal system consists of bones and provides a strong framework for the body. The muscle system is made of a group of skeletal muscle tissue that are attached to bone. This essay will discuss how the muscle and skeletal system work together. The aspects that will be explained are movement, protection and the differences.
INTRODUCTION Cerebral palsy is a chronic disorder caused by static lesion to the immature brain that is characterized by deficits in movement and postural control. Because of impairments such as weaknessspasticity and in coordination,many child with cerebral palsy have difficulty with activities such as ADL’S,functional task such as gait1.Over time ,it was realized that atypical motor patterns became established through practice and experience in the competition of motor patterns2influenced by musculoskeletalcomponents3.Through the development of the sciences of motor control and motor learning,the hierarchical reflex model of motor control adopted by bobath has been replaced by more dynamic approach.4-7Improving one’s ability to walk or to perform other functional activities are often primary therapeutic goals for children with cerebral palsy. Population based studies around the world report prevalence estimates of cerebral palsy ranging from 1.5 to more than 4 per 1000 live births or children of a defined age range8,9,10,11Spasticity is a major challenge for rehabilitation of cerebral palsy. Spasticity can hamper
A human’s body may appear to be a simple form, but nonetheless it is complex with trillions of living organisms working together to keep the individual alive and moving. Many of the composites that keep the individual movements are the cartilages, bones, and joints. Cartilage is divided into three classifications with the same function, but with their own specific functions as well. Bones, which protect the internal organs, are in many different categories based on the appearance of the bones. Joints are divided into different categories depending on the motion it allows the group of bones to do.
It also shows many important functions such as thermoregulation, sensory perception, immunologic surveillance, resistor of insensible fluid loss
(Cinnamon L. , 80) The function of muscular tissue is contracting and producing movement. Moreover, the muscle tissue controls posture, body temperature and supports soft tissues.
Hippotherapy is “a physical, occupational or speech and language therapy treatment strategy that utilizes equine movement (“Hippotherapy,” n.d.)”. Children who are diagnosed with Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, or Autism tend to have slower development in their motor functioning abilities. According to Silkwood-Sherer, Killian, Long and Martin (2012), the foreword walking motion of the horse allows the riders pelvis to move in a way which is similar to them actually walking. This allows the participant to build muscle in the correct places so that they can execute more correct and easier movements. Additionally, the participants are able to acquire better balance with their newly defined muscles, which allows them to partake in normal daily
With this information, we can then conclude that the contraction of cardiac muscle tissue is an involuntary action. Cardiac muscle fibers themselves are organized in bundles that “swirl” in a slightly diagonal or oblique direction around the heart and when stimulated by the aforementioned, are responsible for the strong
By the age of 10 years 80% of them start to walk normally, with the torsion reduced to near normal degrees. More correction occurs during adolescence as they consciously turn their feet outwards and this leads to the condition disappearing during this period in almost 99% of children with this finding.
However it is hard to find a standard literature which described the dissection method to access the coracoid process which can allow researchers, scientists and anatomists to approach this important anatomical structure with minimal injuries to the adjacent structures. Most dissection procedures that
Playing roller skating is a risky sport to children. Rollershoes include two or four wheels which children is out of control, so all of people who play the sport must fall down many times before practice well and children are no exception. Furthermore, the place where children play roller skating is hard concrete ground, If children are out of balance or about to fall, they always protect themselves by hands supporting ground, and therefore, their hands will cause various level of injury. Not only that, but also it is likely to deal to children’s lower limb skeletal dysplasia. There are some experts said that if children play roller skating too early, it will influence children’s lower limb growth because children’s foot are always too small to select unsuitable rollershoes, so that their foot often inclined to one side and over time, foot will be not straight more and
The functions of muscle tissue include support and movement, propulsion of blood through vessels, movement of food or body secretions through tracts, and thermoregulation. There are various types of muscle tissue, including skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. Skeletal muscle tissues are voluntary muscles that are attached to skeletal elements as well as cartilage. Cardiac muscle tissues are involuntary muscles making up the myocardium of the heart. Smooth muscle tissues are involuntary muscles in walls of hollow organs, blood vessels, as well as all other body locals where muscles perform their functions.

Human body consist of many different type of cells and the collection of them form the tissue. Tissue is a group of cells that is highly organized manner according to the specific function and structure which then make up organs and various part of body. (Slomianka, 2009)There are four types of tissues that make up the human body, which is epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue and neural tissue. However, the tissue that gives support to the body and made up the bones is connective tissue. The functions of connective tissues are giving the structural framework of the human body, transport fluids and dissolve materials, protect important and delicate organs and store energy.
