--> The muscular system: This system enables the organism to move from one location to another.

Both the nervous system and the muscular system work together to bring about coordination of activities. When you step on a tack and jeck away, sensory receptors detects stimuli from the external environment and pass the information received as an electrical impulses to the brain through the nerve fibres.
