Skeletal muscle is a type of muscle found in the human body and skeleton muscle is innervated, is controlled by the somatic nervous system. Now that basically means skeleton muscle is responsible for voluntary motion such as walking or running some motion that we are consciously in control of. Now skeletal muscle is positioned next to blood vessels, vessels as well as lymph vessels. And that means when we contract our skeleton muscle, for example when I'm contracting, when I'm moving my hand the skeleton muscle inside my hand is contracting and that increases the blood flow as well as the lymph flow inside the vessels of our body. Now when our skeletal muscles contract they also release a good deal of energy, of energy that we cannot actually use. And so the way that our body gets rid of this energy is by releasing it is by dissipating it in the process of sweating.
