82
Q

Three types of muscles

A

voluntary, involuntary and cardiac

83
Q

Voluntary muscle (skeletal muscle)

A

under conscious control of the brain. these muscles form the major muscle mass of the body. responsible for movement. can contract upon voluntary command of the individual.

84
Q

Involuntary muscle (smooth muscle)

A

gastrointestinal system, lungs, blood vessels and urinary system. also controls the flow of materials through these structures. respond automatically to orders from brain. ultimately not controlled by the person

85
Q

cardiac muscle (specialized form of smooth muscle)
