Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the definitions of voluntary and involuntary muscle tissues. Voluntary muscles are those that can be consciously controlled, while involuntary muscles operate without conscious control.
Identify the types of muscle tissues: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Each has distinct characteristics and functions.
Skeletal muscle is primarily voluntary, meaning it is controlled consciously, such as when moving limbs.
Smooth muscle is involuntary, found in walls of internal organs, and operates without conscious control, such as in digestion.
Cardiac muscle is also involuntary, found in the heart, and functions autonomously to pump blood.
