During a polygraph test, a voluntary response involves conscious actions, such as the subject's decision to answer questions or control their breathing. In contrast, an involuntary response includes physiological reactions that occur automatically, such as changes in heart rate, blood pressure, and galvanic skin response, which are measured to assess stress or deception. The polygraph relies on these involuntary responses, as they can indicate emotional arousal that might be associated with lying.
A voluntary response is under conscious control, meaning you can choose whether or not to perform the action. An involuntary response is not under conscious control and occurs automatically, such as a reflex or a reaction controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
Yes, the somatic nervous system is voluntary. In contrast, the autonomic nervous system is involuntary.
The somatic nervous system is voluntary, meaning it is under conscious control.
Skeletal muscles are voluntary in terms of their control by the nervous system.

Involuntary and voluntary actionssomatic nervous system and autonomic nervous system
Voluntary responses are under conscious control, while involuntary responses occur without conscious control. Voluntary responses typically involve skeletal muscles, while involuntary responses involve smooth muscles, cardiac muscles, or glandular secretions controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
It is the somatic nervous system that transmits information to voluntary muscles. The autonomic nervous system transmits information to involuntary muscles.
Involuntary and voluntary actionssomatic nervous system and autonomic nervous system
Motor neurons are part of the somatic nervous system, which controls voluntary movements like walking, talking, and reaching. However, motor neurons also play a role in the autonomic nervous system, which governs involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion. This dual role allows motor neurons to transmit signals for both voluntary and involuntary actions.
They are considered voluntary and involuntary
