Is a heart a cardiac muscle?
Unlike other types of muscle, cardiac muscle never gets tired. It works automatically and constantly without ever pausing to rest. Cardiac muscle contracts to squeeze blood out of your heart, and relaxes to fill your heart with blood. Unlike skeletal muscle tissue, its contraction is usually not under conscious control
Is the cardiac muscle voluntary?
No because the heart is a cardiac muscle and you cant' control the heart
What is the difference between the voluntary and the involuntary muscle movement?
A voluntary muscle performs movement on command. Involuntary muscle performs with out conscious command.
What type of muscle tissue is voluntarily controlled?
Generally, skeletal muscle is voluntarily controlled and smooth muscle is not. Some structures have a combination of both. For example, the bladder is made up of smooth muscle and consists of some skeletal muscle at the sphincter which is capable of "holding" it until you are ready.

Which type of muscles are not under voluntary control?
Simple answer:Smooth muscle and cardiac muscle are the two muscle types not under conscious control.More detailed answer:There are three types of muscle tissue: Skeletal muscle, Cardiac muscle and Smooth muscle.Skeletal muscle is attached to the bones of the skeleton. They form the flesh of the skin and when they contract, they pull on bones and skin, providing body movements. Skeletal muscle is under our conscious control and is called voluntary muscle.Cardiac and smooth muscle are both involuntary muscles (not under conscious control)Cardiac muscle, as the name suggests is only found in the wall of the heart. Its contractions help propel the blood from the heart, through the blood vessels to all parts of the body.Smooth muscle is found mainly in all the hollow organs other than the heart (blood vessels, uterus, and digestive and urinary tract organs. Its main function is to squeeze substances through these organs by alternately contracting and relaxing.
What does voluntary mean?
To do a voluntary action means to do it without pay, or without having to be asked or forced.Example:Martin's voluntary cleanup of the rubbish surprised them since nobody had asked him to do it.Voluntary means proceeding from one's own choice.
Does a cardiac muscle control digestion?
