Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Non striated or smooth muscles are said to be involuntary in nature because they do not contract or relax according to our will.

Those muscles which can be moved according to will of the organism are called voluntary muscles.

Striated or skeletal muscles are said to be voluntary in nature as they can be contracted or relaxed voluntarily.
