Question

Of the following muscle types, which one is usually voluntary?

• A. Skeletal muscle
• B. Cardiac muscle
• C. Smooth muscle
• D. None of the above.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Skeletal muscle

Skeletal muscles are under the voluntary control of the nervous system. Smooth muscles push materials like food or blood through organs. Unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle can never be under your control. Cardiac muscle is also an involuntary muscle, found only in the heart.
