1. Blood circulation

  • Cardiac muscles are the ones that aid the pumping action of the heart thus helping with the heart circulation

2. Heat generation

  • Shivering is a method that the muscular system uses to generate heat to warm a body up

3. Support

  • Muscles that line the body to help support the internal organs in their place

4. Movement

  • Skeletal muscles pull on the bones causing movements at the joints.
  • The movement caused by the respiratory muscles enables breathing.

5. Protection

  • Skeletal muscles cushion the body's internal organs from force applied to the body externally

Hope that helps!

Why is it important for your brain to control many functions automatically?
juin [17]

Answer:

The brain controls what you think and feel, how you learn and remember, and the way you move and talk. But it also controls things you're less aware of — like the beating of your heart and the digestion of your food.

Think of the brain as a central computer that controls all the body's functions. The rest of the nervous system is like a network that relays messages back and forth from the brain to different parts of the body. It does this via the spinal cord, which runs from the brain down through the back. It contains threadlike nerves that branch out to every organ and body part.

Explanation:

If you brain does not, or is unable to perform multiple tasks automatically, you could have trouble breathing on your own, your heart could have problems, even your thought process, movement, and digestion could malfunction. Which could cause a multitude of complications.

Hope this helped, have a great day/night :}
