The Muscular System
Muscle fibers are long slender cells
and make up muscle fibers. Each muscle is made up of fibers, covered with fascia and attached to bones by tendons.

Muscular Tissue
Motion results from alternating contraction (shortening) and relaxation of muscles; the skeletal system provides leverage and a supportive framework for this movement. The scientific study of muscles is known as myology
