1. Movement: Skeletal muscles are responsible for producing movement in the body by contracting and relaxing to move bones at joints.
2. Posture and Support: Skeletal muscles help maintain posture and provide support for the body, especially when standing or sitting upright.
3. Protection: Skeletal muscles help protect internal organs by surrounding and supporting them.
4. Heat production: Skeletal muscles generate heat through the process of muscle contraction, which helps regulate body temperature.
5. Metabolism: Skeletal muscles play a role in metabolism by storing and utilizing energy in the form of glycogen and fat.
6. Blood circulation: Skeletal muscles help facilitate blood circulation by contracting and relaxing, which assists in the movement of blood through the veins back to the heart.
7. Joint stability: Skeletal muscles provide stability to joints by supporting and controlling movement, helping to prevent injury and maintain joint health.

1. Movement:
- Produces force and movement through contraction and relaxation
- Enables locomotion, posture, facial expressions, and manipulation of objects
2. Support and Protection:
- Provides structural support and protection for the body and its organs
- Acts as an attachment site for ligaments, tendons, and muscles
3. Heat Generation:
- Generates heat through metabolic activity during muscle contraction
- Contributes to maintaining body temperature under cold conditions
4. Posture and Stability:
- Maintains posture and stability by balancing the body
- Coordinates movement to prevent falling and maintain equilibrium
5. Storage:
- Stores carbohydrates as glycogen, which can be used as energy during exercise
6. Defense:
- Muscles can react to defend against injury or threats
- Contract rapidly to protect or shield the body
7. Detoxification:
- Aids in detoxification by promoting blood flow and lymphatic drainage
- Removes waste products from muscles and other tissues
8. Metabolic Regulation:
- Skeletal muscle plays a role in glucose metabolism
- Helps regulate blood sugar levels by absorbing glucose during exercise
9. Communication:
- Skeletal muscles communicate with the nervous and endocrine systems
- Receive nerve impulses to trigger contractions and release hormones to regulate metabolism
10. Coordination:
- Works in conjunction with other muscles and the nervous system
- Coordinates complex movements, such as walking, running, and manipulating objects
- Produces force and movement through contraction and relaxation
- Enables locomotion, posture, facial expressions, and manipulation of objects
