The answer to that question is: Did you know you have more than 600 muscles in your body? They help you do almost everything - from pumping blood throughout your body to lifting your heavy backpack. You control some of your muscles and others, like your heart, do their jobs without you thinking about them at all. Muscles are all made of the same material, a type of elastic tissue (sort of like the material in a rubber band). Thousands, or even tens of thousands, of small fibers make up each muscle. You have three different types of muscles in your body: smooth muscle, cardiac (say: kar-dee-ak) muscle, and skeletal (say: skel-uh-tul) muscle. Smooth muscles are sometimes also called involuntary muscles and they are usually in sheets, or layers, with one layer of muscle behind the other. You can't control this type of muscle. Your brain and body tell these muscles what to do without you even thinking about it. You can't use your smooth muscles to make a muscle in your arm or jump into the air. But smooth muscles are at work all over your body. In your stomach and digestive system, they contract (tighten up) and relax to allow food to make its journey through the body. Your smooth muscles come in handy if you're sick and you need to throw up. The muscles push the food back out of the stomach so it comes up through the esophagus (say: ih-sah-fuh-gus) and out of the mouth. Smooth muscles are also found in your bladder. When they're relaxed, they allow you to hold in urine (pee) until you can get to the bathroom. Then they contract so that you can push the urine out. These muscles are also in a woman's uterus, which is where a baby develops. There they help to push the baby out of the mother's body when it's time to be born. You'll find smooth muscles at work behind the scenes in your eyes, too. These muscles keep the eyes focused. The muscle that makes up the heart is called cardiac muscle. It is also known as the myocardium (say: my-uh-kar-dee-um). The thick muscles of the heart contract to pump blood out and then relax to let blood back in after it's circulated through the body. Just like smooth muscle, cardiac muscle works all by itself with no help from you. A special group of cells within the heart are known as the pacemaker of the heart because it controls the heartbeat. yourwelcome
What muscles are used to go from laying down to sitting up?
The recuts abdominus provides the main pulling force to lift hte thorax and the Oblique group provies stability in the movement. These are the only muscles necessary to go from lying to sitting
Why are antagonistic muscles important?
Muscles cannot push, they can only pull which means they work in pairs in order to move, this is known as antagonistic pairs.
For example with a bicep curl you have the agonist/ prime mover (Bicep) and the antagonist/ Opposing muscle group (Triceps). As the agonist contracts it pulls the antagonist which relaxes.
Which muscles does one use when playing hockey?

Skeletal muscle tissue has cylindrical cells. Due to the cells in the skeletal muscle, the muscle can now allow movement to the bones in the body.
Is lifting a rock boluntary or involuntary?
Climbing is a voluntary action because you are controlling your body when you are climbing.
What does your muscle produce when there is little or no oxygen?
During the process of aerobic respiration, a form of energy known as adenosine triphosphate or ATP is made. This ATP usually mixes with oxygen to help the body do its necessary functions. If however, there is not enough oxygen going into your body, the ATP begins to dwindle and go into its reserve. Once these occurs your body begins making a by-product know as lactic acid
What muscle group is responsible for extension of the big toe?

Where would you find the gluteus maximus muscle?
The combination of the three muscles Gluteus Maximus, Gluteus Medius and Gluteis Minimus are called the Buttocks (I guess this is the common name but its often used a technical term). Oddle these muscles are are the posterior part of the Pelvis and act to Extend the Thigh (pull it back) and Abduct it (pull it out to the side). The Outermose of the three is also the larges, glutes maximus, the innermost is the smallest, gluteus minimus and in the muddle is gluteus medius.
