Does skeletal muscles move limbs and produce smiles?
Yes, skeletal muscles are responsible for the movement of limbs in the body. They contain muscle fibers that contract and relax, causing the bones they are attached to move. Skeletal muscles also play a role in producing smiles, as they assist in the movement of the muscles in the face that create facial expressions.
How is skeletal muscle adapted for its role in the body?
Well, the skeletal muscles have adapted in the same way the black guy in X men: first class adapts to his surroundings. Skeletal muscles are mutants. God help us.

Distinguish between the three types of muscle tissue?
Skeletal (striated), smooth, and cardiac.UPDATED: Dec. 1, 2009The three types of muscles and four characteristics of each:1. SMOOTHa. What/where - GI track, vessels and ductsb. Appearance - smooth - not striated - no dark and light fibersc. Nucleus - single nucleus per fiberd. Function/movement - peristalsis2. CARDIACa. What/where - heartb. Appearance - striated/striped - light and dark fibersc. Nucleus - Multi-nuceli on connecting fibersd. Function/movement - t (twitch)3. SKELETAL / STRIATEDa. What/where - skeleton of voluntary musclesb. Appearance - striated/striped - dark and light fibersc. Nucleus - mulit-nuclei per fiberd. Function/movement - t & t (twitch & tetanus)Your heart
