There are 3 types of muscles: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles (National Cancer Institute, n.d.) . They are formed by thousands of muscle fibers that break down to smaller components. We can find 2 types of muscle fibers mainly aerobic or anaerobic, that can be subcategorized into 4 subtypes. The difference between muscle fibers causes them to have distinct responsibilities and uses. This contrast also shows in the metabolic adaptations that muscles undergo during exercise, which attributes their important functions in regulating homeostasis and affect different organs. Overall, this review highlights the anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry of muscles during exercise, which aim to support the healthy function of the human body.  \nKeywords: muscles, skeletal, muscle fibers, aerobic, anaerobic, metabolic adaptations, exercise, homeostasis.  \nI. Introduction  \nThe human body is a complex machine formed and sustained by multiple sets of mechanisms that work by both positive and negative feedback that together allow homeostasis, the process that keeps this machine functioning properly (OpenStaxCollege, 2013) . Every organ/system has specific roles to play in this fine balance system; for instance, the nervous and endocrine system work in the “communication department” (Villa-forte, 2022), while the pulmonary supplies oxygen with the help of the cardiovascular system that circulates blood, which includes muscles too (Villa-forte, 2022) . Muscles are underrated organs; people link them only to exercise and movement, yet they have many important functions in the body. Muscles are also very adaptive and have the ability to change due to a process that we all know as exercising, which affects mostly skeletal muscles. In this essay we will be explaining the effect of exercise on skeletal muscles.  \nII. Types of muscles  \nFirst, we can find three types of muscles, smooth (non-striated, surround organs mainly in the digestive system, responsible for peristalsis, involuntary) (Hafen et al., 2023), cardiac (striated of rectangular shape, strong forming the muscle of the heart which contracts to create heartbeat, involuntary) (Saxton et al., 2023), and skeletal (striated, connected to bones, allows movement, voluntary) (Dave et al., 2023) .  \nIII. Skeletal muscle morphology  \nSkeletal muscles are the most abundant, constituting 1/3 of the total body weight of a person; they form an important combinatory system which is the musculoskeletal system that is  \nresponsible for movement. Skeletal muscles vary in size and shape, but they share a common structure, striations, which are formed by groups of muscle fibers. Each muscle fiber is made of myofibrils and each myofibril contains myofilaments with the most important structure, thesarcomere. The latter is the contractile part of the muscle. The sarcomere is formed by actin and myosin filaments which due to a nervous impulse, ATP and other factors will allow the gliding motion of the filaments that will cause the shortening of the sarcomere thus inducing muscle contraction (Dave et al., 2023) . Other than movement, skeletal muscles are also responsible for body posture, protection of viscera, body temperature regulation, blood pressure regulation, nutrient storage, and glucose and lipid levels regulation (Gash et al., 2023) .  \nIV. Types of skeletal muscle fibers  \nAlthough muscles might appear to be all similar, we can find differences in structure on the level of their fibers. We can find 2 types of muscle fibers: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 muscle fibers are called slow oxidative fibers and use an aerobic respiration pathway (in the presence of O2) . This type of muscle fiber is used for slow and steady needs. They have a slow co","cbCaiueU6BDeTDAU","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiueU6BDeTDAU","pdf",466485,11,"English","# I. Introduction\n# II.
