The pectoral muscles are what we commonly call the chest muscles. The pectoralis majors are primarily responsible for movement of the shoulder joint.
It can flex the humerus, as in throwing a ball side-arm, and in lifting a child. Secondly, it adducts the humerus, as when flapping the arms.

The myotatic reflex is provoked by activation of muscle spindles in a stretched muscle. These muscle spindles are sensory receptors that detect changes in muscle length and help regulate muscle contraction and body position. When a muscle is stretched, the muscle spindles send signals to the spinal cord, leading to a reflex contraction to prevent overstretching.
Cardiac muscle tissue has intercalated discs, which are specialized structures that help with communication and coordination of muscle contractions in the heart.
No, the trachea does not have skeletal muscle. Instead, it is composed of smooth muscle, cartilage, and connective tissue. Smooth muscle allows for involuntary control of the trachea's diameter and airflow.
No, sarcomeres are not visible in smooth muscle. Smooth muscle lacks the organized sarcomere structure found in striated muscle, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle. Instead, smooth muscle has a more scattered arrangement of contractile proteins.
The dartos muscle and the cremaster muscle are two muscles found in the scrotum. The dartos muscle is a smooth muscle that helps regulate the temperature of the testes by contracting or relaxing to elevate or lower the scrotum. The cremaster muscle is a skeletal muscle that raises and lowers the testes in response to temperature changes or sexual arousal.
Mostly pectorals with some triceps, shoulders, and even some stabilizers that you wouldn't think of in your neck and back.

These elements belong to the same group in the periodic table known as Group 14 or the carbon group. They share similar chemical properties due to having the same number of valence electrons.
That all depends on your person body's genetic make-up. The only way to increase breast size is to gain over-all body weight. Increasing muscle mass (pectorials) with in some cases decrease the size and possible change the shape of the breast.
The muscles that are being tested while using a chin-up bar are biceps, back muscles and the pectorials. We all exercise to increase our life span and prepare when we come into contact with enemies.
Muscle does not connect to muscle. Fascia is a connective tissue that connects muscle to organs. Tendons connect muscle to bone.
A skeletal muscle.
Muscle cells are smaller than muscle tissues.
there is a thigh muscle its a skeletal muscle
Tendons tie muscles to bones and ligaments tie muscle to muscle.
