Why are voluntary muscle also called skeletal muscles?
Voluntary muscles are ones that you have the ability to consciously control: Arms, legs, mouth, head movement, etc. Most of the major muscle groups used or movement and communication are voluntary.Involuntary muscles would be things like your heart and the muscles around your intestines, which you generally cannot consciously control.Voluntary muscles are ones that you have the ability to consciously control: Arms, legs, mouth, head movement, etc. Most of the major muscle groups used or movement and communication are voluntary.Involuntary muscles would be things like your heart and the muscles around your intestines, which you generally cannot consciously control.
What controls your eye muscles?
Your eye muscles are controlled ultimately by your brain, so when you think "look over there" ... the muscles move your eyes to look. Obviously the thought doesn't have to be a conscious decision though. It is lightning fast... as soon as you think that you want to look someplace, you do.
Where are the three types of muscles located in your body?
Skeletal muscle or "voluntary muscle" is anchored by tendons (or by aponeuroses at a few places) to bone and is used to effect skeletal movement such as locomotion and in maintaining posture. Though this postural control is generally maintained as an unconscious reflex, the muscles responsible react to conscious control like non-postural muscles.Smooth muscle or "involuntary muscle" can be found in the walls of organs and organ systems such as the digestive, urinary and respiratory systems. This muscle is not under conscious control.Cardiac muscle is also involuntary, but is similar to the skeletal muscle, and only found in the heart.

Why is a control arm necessary in a clinical trial?
It's not control arm, just control, meaning a control set or group. The control group are individuals that are not given the treatment. If this control group are conscious and can apprehend, every effort is made to make them think they are getting the treatment though they aren't. The reason for the control group is to be able to compare the individuals who have had the treatment (called the experimental group) with others that are in all ways the same except for the treatment and thus see/measure what difference the treatment makes.
Which type of muscles are not under voluntary control?
Simple answer:Smooth muscle and cardiac muscle are the two muscle types not under conscious control.More detailed answer:There are three types of muscle tissue: Skeletal muscle, Cardiac muscle and Smooth muscle.Skeletal muscle is attached to the bones of the skeleton. They form the flesh of the skin and when they contract, they pull on bones and skin, providing body movements. Skeletal muscle is under our conscious control and is called voluntary muscle.Cardiac and smooth muscle are both involuntary muscles (not under conscious control)Cardiac muscle, as the name suggests is only found in the wall of the heart. Its contractions help propel the blood from the heart, through the blood vessels to all parts of the body.Smooth muscle is found mainly in all the hollow organs other than the heart (blood vessels, uterus, and digestive and urinary tract organs. Its main function is to squeeze substances through these organs by alternately contracting and relaxing.
A muscles that sraightens a body part?
* Skeletal muscle or "voluntary muscle" is anchored by tendons to bone and is used to effect skeletal movement such as locomotion and in maintaining posture. Though this postural control is generally maintained as a subconscious reflex, the muscles responsible react to conscious control like non-postural muscles. An average adult male is made up of 40-50% of skeletal muscle and an average adult female is made up of 30-40% (as a percentage of body mass).[citation needed] source is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscles
What can you infer from the fact that your body is basically covered in voluntary muscles?
You can infer that we are voluntary animals. We can move how ever we want to move, and basically do whatever we want to do. There are many involuntary muscles in the body as well, though, so we don't have to control crucial process, such as the heart beat.
What does falling mean in a dream?
Perhaps it could mean you are on the edge of your bed which makes the mind seem as though you are fallingAnswer:Falling dreams often occur as the dreamer is drifting off to sleep. The conscious mind resists releasing control, and the unconscious produces a dream interpretation of literally "falling" (to sleep.) As the conscious mind regains control, the dreamer experiences the typical jerk back into wakefulness.> Falling dreams that occur later in the sleep cycle generally are metaphors for feeling out of control in some area of life, such as failing (falling) at work or school.
The neuromuscular system is made up of the what?

How do you gain muscles quickley?
You can't. Large muscles take dedication and hard work, combined with eating and proper rest. Stick to it though and you can get muscles.
Unconscious and conscious behavior?
The conscious mind includes everything that we are aware of. This is the aspect of our mental processing that we can think and talk about rationally. A part of this includes our memory, which is not always part of consciousness but can be retrieved easily at any time and brought into our awareness. Freud called this ordinary memory the preconscious.The unconscious mind is a reservoir of feelings, thoughts, urges, and memories that outside of our conscious awareness. Most of the contents of the unconscious are unacceptable or unpleasant, such as feelings of pain, anxiety, or conflict. According to Freud, the unconscious continues to influence our behavior and experience, even though we are unaware of these underlying influences.
