Question

which muscles work while we are sleep? are they voluntary or involuntary muscles ?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Even when you’re sleeping, your heart beats and you continue breathing. Even in REM sleep, your eyeballs twitch and throughout the night, your gut continues processing food. So obviously, your involuntary muscles continue to work.

And, although your voluntary muscles become paralyzed when you are in deep REM sleep (for your safety) during all other times your muscles continue to work. This is why you can turn over in your sleep.

Answer 2

Answer:

smooth muscle

Explanation:

Smooth muscle and cardiac muscle are INVOLUNTARY.

These muscles work “automatically” to keep us healthy even when we are asleep. Skeletal muscle is VOLUNTARY, because it operates under conscious control.
