Muscle System Concepts and Functions

The video tutorial introduces the muscular system, explaining its connection with the skeletal system. It covers how muscles work through contraction and relaxation, using biceps and triceps as examples. The tutorial also classifies muscles into three types: voluntary, involuntary, and cardiac, detailing their functions and characteristics. The video concludes with a summary and encourages viewers to subscribe for more content.
