Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the three main types of muscle tissue: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle.
Recall that skeletal muscle is attached to bones and is responsible for body movements that you can consciously control.
Recognize that smooth muscle is found in walls of internal organs and blood vessels and operates involuntarily, meaning it is not under conscious control.
Know that cardiac muscle is found only in the heart and also functions involuntarily to pump blood throughout the body.
Conclude that the muscle type primarily under voluntary (conscious) control is skeletal muscle.
