Other tissues in muscles are connective tissues, such as tendons that attach skeletal muscles to bones and sheaths of connective tissues that cover or line muscle tissues. Only muscle tissue per se, however, has cells with the ability to contract.

Having a broken bone can really restrict your activity. Bones are very hard, but they will break, or fracture, if enough force is applied to them. Fortunately, bones are highly active organs that can repair themselves if they break. Bones can also remodel themselves and grow. You'll learn how bones can do all of these things in this concept.

For example, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) works with physicians, veterinarians, ecologists, and many others to monitor and control public health threats and to learn about how diseases spread among people, animals, and the environment.

Minimal Risk Levels (MRLs) for noncancer toxic effects are derived by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), which has a congressional mandate to investigate the health effects of hazardous substances in the environment.
