Abstrakt: The musculoskeletal system comprises one of the major tissue/organ systems in the body. The three main types of muscle tissue are skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle groups.[1][2][3] Skeletal muscle attaches to the bone by tendons, and together they produce all the movements of the body. The skeletal muscle fibers are crossed with a regular pattern of fine red and white lines, giving the muscle a distinctive striated appearance. Hence they are also known as striated muscles.[4][5][6][7][8]
