Skeletal muscles: packed together, attach to, and cover the skeleton. obvious striations. VOLUNTARY muscles. contract rapidly but TIRE EASILY. responsible for overal body motility. extrememly adaptable (can exert forces from only onces to 70 lbs)

Cardiac (myocardial): only in the heart. striated and NOT VOLUNTARY. contracts at a steady rate. contolled by nervous system and bodily changes. ONCE YOU LOSE IT, ITS GONE FOR GOOD. CAN'T FATIGUE. has to have stimulus great enough to stimulate all of the muscles of none will contract (where as skeletal muscles can be forced into twiches where only a small part of the muscle will contract)

What is the distinguish between involuntary muscle cardiac muscle skeletal muscle and voluntary muscle?

Cardiac muscles are involuntary. Cardiac muscles are what makes the heart pump. Cardiac muscles are only in your heart. If those muscles were voluntary, organisms would most likely die. Skeletal muscles are voluntary. You can move any part of your body freely with these muscles, unless you are paralized in which your skeletal muscles are damaged, the nerve cells from those muscles to the spine are damaged, or the spine itself is damaged. Skeletal muscles are found in all of the body. In an average person, skeletal muscles make up 40% of body weight. So:: Cardiac muscles are INVOLUNTATY Skeletal muscles are VOLUNTARY
