Top Muscles Flashcards

Our muscles are one of the most important parts of our body. Did you know that your heart is a muscle? Without muscles to move our blood and make us breathe we would die. Another major role of muscles is to move food along our digestive tract. Did you know that this movement is called peristalsis? Muscles are what allow us to move our bodies.
 
Everyone knows that muscles are made up of protein, but did you know that there are two types of muscle fibers called actin and myosin? There are also three types of muscles - smooth, skeletal, and cardiac. Do you know the different functions of each? Do you know how many different muscles are in the body? If you are ready to start learning about muscles, then our flashcards can help your knowledge get stronger!
