Muscles make it possible for animals to move. Worms move by tightening and relaxing their muscles in waves. Snails and clams crawl with the help of a big muscle called a foot. Insects move their legs and wings with muscles hidden under their exoskeleton, or hard covering. Fish, reptiles, birds, and mammals move with the help of muscles connected to their skeleton. All the muscles in an animal’s body make up its muscular system.
