Skeletal muscles contain muscle fibers, which are long, cylindrical cells that are multinucleated and striated due to the organization of actin and myosin filaments. They also contain connective tissue, blood vessels, and nerves, which supply nutrients and facilitate movement. Additionally, skeletal muscles have specialized structures called tendons that attach them to bones, enabling voluntary movement of the skeletal system.
Muscles contain an oxygen storage pigment called myoglobin. Myoglobin helps muscles store and transport oxygen for energy production during exercise.
it provides shape for your body and movement
Skeletal muscles contain elongated muscle fibers arranged in sheets and have multiple nuclei. Smooth muscles and cardiac muscles also have elongated cells, but they are not arranged in sheets and do not have multiple nuclei in each cell.
The head and neck contain around 43 facial muscles responsible for expressions like smiling, frowning, and squinting. These muscles work together to help us convey our emotions and communicate non-verbally.
The epidermis does not contain blood vessels, nerves, or muscles. It is primarily composed of keratinocytes that provide a waterproof barrier and protect the underlying layers of the skin.

the muscles are smooth muscles!
For a patient on skeletal traction, exercises should focus on maintaining range of motion and strengthening muscles that are not involved in the traction device. This may include gentle range of motion exercises for the unaffected joints, isometric exercises for the muscles of the upper body, and breathing exercises to prevent respiratory complications. It is important to consult with a physical therapist or healthcare provider for a personalized exercise plan.
