This system consists of osteology (the study of bones), arthrology (the study of joints), and myology (the study of muscles).
We cover your major locomotion system in detail.

What is the Musculoskeletal System?
submitted by Dr. Gary Farr 6/25/2002
If we take a look at the human skeleton, we see that the 200 or more bones, however different in size and shape they may be, are all just links in one long chain. It is the ingenious construction of the bones, with their particular inner structure and apt connection to other bones, which make the skeleton what it is: an inherently conclusive, functional unit suited to its purpose!
