Explanation

The human body has three types of muscles: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Each type of muscle serves a different purpose in the body. Skeletal muscles attach to bones and help to create movement. Smooth muscles line the walls of organs and blood vessels, and aid in involuntary movements such as digestion and blood flow. Cardiac muscles are found in the heart and are responsible for pumping blood throughout the body. The three types of muscles work together to allow for the proper functioning of the body.
