The musculoskeletal system is composed of osseous (bone) tissue and muscle tissue. Both are essential parts of the complex
structure that is the body. The skeletal system has a major role in the total structure of the body, but bones and joints
alone cannot produce movement. Together, skeletal tissue and muscle tissue are important parts of the functioning of the body
as a whole.
