Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Striated muscles are muscles that show visible stripes or bands when viewed under a microscope. Skeletal muscles are striated and are under voluntary control, meaning that they are consciously controlled by the brain. Smooth muscles, on the other hand, are non-striated and involuntary, while cardiac muscles are striated and involuntary. Therefore, the only muscle that fits the description of being both striated and voluntary is skeletal muscle.
