How Our Muscles Work

By Dwight Morris

Muscles allow a person to speak, move, and chew, and they also control heartbeat, breathing, and digestion. In this engaging volume, readers enhance their understanding of how muscles function and interconnect with other systems in the body. This interesting volume dives into the different types of muscles--skeletal, smooth, and cardiac--and explains their unique roles and how they work together to facilitate movement, maintain posture, and support vital functions. Enriched with accessible main text, vibrant photographs, and a helpful glossary, the volume broadens readers' STEM knowledge and serves as an invaluable resource about the intricate systems that support our everyday actions.
