What types of muscles are found in the body?
There are three types of muscles found in the human body. The muscles found in the body are the visceral, cardiac, and skeletal muscles.

Bladder, throat, and stomach.
What are the three types of muscles found in the skeletal system?
cardiac, smooth, and skeletal.
Name the three kind of muscles found in human beings?
Smooth, striated, and cardiac are the three kinds of muscle tissue found in human beings.
What are the three places where skeletal muscles can be found?
Skeletal muscle is found in all muscles (mainly in charge of movement) other than the heart (cardiac muscle) and the organs (smooth muscle)
What kind of muscles are found covering your skeleton?
Skelatal muscles. there are three types of muscles Smooth (linining the digestive system) Cardiac (your heart) and Skelatal (triceps biceps pecs)

If you damaged your intercostal muscles which process would be seriously impaired?
There are three layers of intercostal muscles: the External Intercosals, the Internal Intercostals and the Innermost Intercostals. These muscles are the one found between the Ribs in the ribcage and all are innervated by coastal nerves. At rest these particular muscles have very little function it is only during Forced Respiration (forced breathing not the cellular kind of respiration) that they come into action. During Forced Inspiration the Diaphragm pulls down as normal but to maximise increase the size of the Thoracic Cavity and suck in extra air the the external intercostals are activated. These muscles pull the ribs up and forwards. During normal expiration the elasticity of the lungs themsevels as well as action from the abdominal muscles shrink the thoracic cavity pushing the used air out again. This is not fast enough however for exercising, where forced expiration is required. Here the internal and innermost intercostals pull the ribs down and back compressing the thoracic cavity and forcefull (as aposed to passively) push the air out. Damage to any layer of the intercostal muscles is likely to make breathing during exercise much harder and less efficient.
