The strongest muscle in the body is debatable. Some physiologists believe it's the masseter (used for chewing), while others claim it's the gluteus maximus (buttocks), or the rectus femoris (part of the quadriceps in the thigh). It's not easy to determine partly because muscles don't work alone. For example, you wouldn't be able to isolate the rectus femoris muscle and compare it directly to others because other quadriceps muscles contract along with it. There are biomechanical factors to consider as well like muscle length and the points on the bones where muscles attach called the origins and insertions.

Strongest Muscle is the cardiac muscle, which is found in your heart.
The organ is called "The Heart!"

I think it's the quadriceps femoris muscles - thigh muscle. Not an organ. It is the muscular-skeletal system
