 | | The musculoskeletal system consists of the skeletal system -- bones and joints (union of two or more bones) -- and the skeletal muscle system (voluntary or striated muscles). | | | Each of more than 600 muscles is served by nerves which link the muscle to the brain and spinal cord. | | | skeletal (or voluntary/striated) muscle, the most abundant tissue in the human body, producing movement. |
