Is an effector of a skeletal muscle a somatic reflex?
No its a humungus condom
What tissue can be moved voluntarily?
Skeletal muscles are under voluntary control; smooth muscles and cardiac muscles aren't.
What are skeletal muscles and what do they do?
Skeletal muscles consist of striated muscle tissue, they are largely voluntary muscles their purpose is to move the skeleton. They are anchored to the skeleton at either end by tendons and operate by using the bones as leavers and the joints as points of articulation.
Which type of muscle is multinucleated striated and in cylinder form?
Skeletal muscle.
What are the cells in large skeletal muscles called?
Muscle cells are known as myocytes.
What reflex prevents a muscle from exerting too much tension?
It's called the stretch reflex and involves muscle spindles which are sensorimotor organs located in skeletal muscle.
Which muscle do you control smooth muscle or skeletal muscle?
You are in direct control of skeletal muscle.
Is a gag reflex a somatic reflex?
No, a somatic reflex are the reflexes of the skeletal muscle movements. The gag reflex is considered to be an autonomic reflex.
Is an effector of a skeletal muscle a somatic reflex?
No its a humungus condom
Is the corneal reflex a somatic reflex or an autonomic reflex?
This particular reflex is autonomic as the affected muscle, constrictor pupillae muscle, is a smooth muscle and not under conscious control. Typically if you can consciously contract the muscle, any reflex associated with that muscle is somatic in nature.
What skeletal muscle cells are the effectors of the withdrawal reflex?
flexor muscles
Type of muscle that can be controlled?
they are called caultonary muscles. YOU want to use them
What type of muscle is controlled by conscious thought?
Skeletal muscles are the only type of muscle in the body under conscious control.
What is cardiac smooth muscle?
There is nothing really called 'cardiac smooth muscle'. Cardiac muscle is striated like skeletal muscle but it is not under your control like skeletal muscle is. It acts more like smooth muscle because of this reason. But we only use the terms smooth muscle, striated (skeletal) muscle or cardiac muscle.
What muscle is primarily under conscious control?
Skeletal muscle
What type of tissue is the skeletal muscle?
Skeletal muscle is a striated muscle used to control movement of specific body parts
What kind of muscle can you consciously contro smooth muscle or skeletal muscle?
There are three types of muscles. Cardiac, smooth, and skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscles are the only ones you can voluntarily control.
