What else can I help you with?
Is the heart a voluntary muscle?
No, the heart is an involuntary muscle. You can affect your heart rate through your nervous system but you cannot contract and relax at will your heart muscle as you would your bicep or other voluntary muscle.
What would happen if your heart or stomach were made out of voluntary muscles?
If such things were voluntary we would not exist.
Why you need voluntary muscles?
to live because without them you would die because your heart is a voluntary muscle
Why is your heart an involuntary?
Your heart is involuntary because you cannot contract your cardiac muscle or" heart muscles". it would be terrible if your heart was voluntary. You would have to remember to pump your own blood or you would die :)
Explain voluntary and involuntary muscles Give an example of at least one voluntary muscle and at least one involuntary muscle Explain why it is important that these muscles are voluntary or involun?
voluntary is muscles you choose to move, whereas involuntary are muscles that move without your will. an involuntary muscle wouuld be your heart and that it pumps blood, which is a cardiac muscle, a voluntary muscle is like you moving your hand up and down, and that is a skeletal muscle. its important because if you had to think to make your heart pump blood, you would probably die in your sleep. Also, its important for a skeletal muscle to be voluntary, because if it wasnt you cant ever control it, and it moves by itself.
What are examples of voluntary and involuntary muscle?
a voluntary muscle is a muscle that move when you tell it toMuscles in our hands (skeletal muscle) are called voluntary, because these muscles act according to the impulses (orders) given by our conscious brain.Heart (cardiac muscle) is an example of an involuntary muscle. It works all the time with impulses from our brain stem, which is involuntary.some more examples of voluntary muscles in our body are, muscles of the chest, neck, abdomen, etc. and those of involuntary muscles are, muscles of the digestive system, smooth muscles etc.
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
Where in the body is the cardiac muscle located?
The word cardiac means heart, and the heart is a muscle.
What does it mean when right arm moves without thought?
It means that you naturally move your arm with out thinking that your going to move it. There are two types of muscles; voluntary muscles and involuntary muscles. Voluntary muscles are muscles that you think about to move sometimes and involuntary muscles are muscles that you don't think about moving. An example of an involuntary muscle would be your heart and an example of a voluntary muscle would be your arm even though you don't really have to think about it when you move it.
Is a smooth muscle a voluntary muscle or involuntary muscle?
Yes, smooth muscle is involuntary muscle, meaning it will cause actions that you don't have to think about. For example, your vasculature is surrounded by smooth muscle to allow dilation or constriction of blood vessels to help control blood pressure and shunt blood away from or to certain regions of the body.
How would you be affected if your heart were made of skeletal muscle?
Im guessing it wouldn t last to long considering all the Carbs and Oxygen would be needed to support it I think the main point that needs to be made is that skeletel muscle is controlled voluntarily. So to survive we would have to be consciously making our heart beat as required, which would surely make life unsustainable
If your heart has no muscle anymore can you live?
The heart is one. If the muscle was gone, it would be too.
