The human body has three main layers of muscle: the skeletal muscle, which is attached to bones and allows for voluntary movement; the smooth muscle, which is found in the walls of internal organs and is involuntary; and the cardiac muscle, which makes up the heart and is also involuntary. Each type of muscle serves a distinct function within the body.

How many muscle layers does the stomach have?

There are actually FOUR layers of muscle in the stomach. For an effective explanation you need to find a sectional view of the stomach. 1) the muscularis mucosae - a very thin layer of smooth muscle that functions in altering the surface area of the stomach by moving the villi back and forth. 2) Muscularis Externa - there are THREE layers of this muscle in the stomach (compared to only 2 layers in the small intestine.)The following are ordered from innermost layer to outermost layer. >innermost oblique >middle circular >outer longitudinal Happy studying!
