Physiology, Skeletal Muscle
2019
Skeletal muscle is found throughout the body and functions to contract in response to voluntary stimulus. Skeletal muscle serves many purposes including maintaining body posture, moving the body and objects, beginning the swallow reflex, and changing thoracic volume to inhale or exhale. Unlike smooth muscle and cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle receives neural input that allows conscious control of the muscles.
