Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the types of muscle tissue in the human body. There are three main types: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle tissue.
Step 2: Recognize the characteristics of skeletal muscle tissue. It is attached to bones and is responsible for voluntary movements, meaning you can consciously control it.
Step 3: Identify cardiac muscle tissue, which is found only in the heart and functions involuntarily to pump blood.
Step 4: Understand smooth muscle tissue, which is found in walls of internal organs like the intestines and blood vessels and operates involuntarily.
Step 5: Conclude that the muscle tissue responsible for moving bones at joints under voluntary control is skeletal muscle tissue.
