Muscles can contract, and they can relax. Most muscles are connected to bones, although some are not (such as the lip muscles). All the movements of the human body are caused by various patterns of contracting muscles and relaxing muscles.

What is the body movement carried out by the skeletal muscles that require energy?

The body movement carried out by skeletal muscles that requires energy is contraction. When a muscle contracts, it shortens and pulls on bones, enabling movement of the skeleton. This process requires energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is generated through cellular respiration. Activities like walking, running, and lifting involve the coordinated contraction of skeletal muscles, all dependent on energy.
