The muscular system and the skeletal system work together to provide movement for the human body. Muscle tissue is found in three distinct types in the body; skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Skeletal muscles must have a blood and nervous supply to provide movement. Skeletal muscles are under conscious control, meaning that a person can consciously decide to use these muscles to complete an action. Communication within the body to coordinate movement starts in the brain with a message that is sent through the spinal cord and eventually attaches to a muscle. Peripheral nerves carry the signal from the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to a specific muscle destination to provide movement. Messages from the central nervous system to a muscle are called a motor actions. Nerves also carry information from the external environment to the central nervous system, called sensation or sensory input. (see Figure 5.1 and Figure 5.2) Spinal nerves combine to form complex networks of peripheral nerves throughout the body.
