Actions that one can control are governed by the peripheral nervous system and are called voluntary actions. As I am typing this, I am very much in control over the way my fingers move. This is called a voluntary action and as I mentioned before, is under the control of the peripheral nervous system.
Actions that an individual cannot control such as the beating of the heart, peristaltic action and reflexes are under the control of the central nervous system and are called involuntary actions.
The classification of actions as involuntary or voluntary often depends on whether the individual consciously chooses to act. Involuntary actions are reflexive or unintentional, such as sneezing or blinking, while voluntary actions are typically intentional and under conscious control, like reaching for an object or speaking.
Talking is typically a voluntary action, as it requires a conscious decision to produce words and engage in communication. However, some aspects of talking, such是burping or sneezing involuntarily, can occur reflexively.
Reflex does not belong because it is an involuntary act, while the other terms - predictable response, voluntary act, and involuntary act - all suggest some level of consciously initiated action.

Control of the diaphragm is both voluntary and involuntary. While the diaphragm is primarily under involuntary control to regulate breathing functions automatically, it can also be consciously controlled to some extent, such as during activities like singing or breath techniques in yoga.
A reflex is an involuntary response to a stimulus, involving the spinal cord and not the brain, whereas a voluntary movement is a conscious action initiated by the brain. Reflexes are typically faster and automatic, while voluntary movements can be controlled and coordinated.
It's involuntary, but some do have a limited degree of control.

Some muscles are voluntary some are involuntary.
Well, an example of involuntary is your esophagus or intestines. We were taught that digestion is an involuntary process, so I am sorry but I do not know of any voluntary muscle examples.
Muscles that are under your conscious control are voluntary, such as flexing your elbow. The ones under unconscious control are either reflexive or involuntary, such as the muscles that move your food through your digestive system, or make your heart beat.

Actus reus refers to the voluntary physical act or conduct that is an essential element of a criminal offense. It is generally required that the act be voluntary, meaning that the person intentionally and consciously engaged in the act. However, in some cases, such as involuntary manslaughter, a person may be held liable for an unintentional act that resulted in harm or death.
An antonym for the word 'involuntary' is the root word without the prefix: 'voluntary'. Other antonyms for the adjective include conscious, intentional, and unforced.
The difference between reflex and voluntary action is that a reflex occurs naturally in response to some sort of stimulus and voluntary action is something that is consciously carried out. An example of a reflex action is gagging and an example of voluntary action is flinching when someone is going to hit you.
The vast majority is involuntary. The lower bowels can be controlled, but very limited in nature.
Both - When you blink you don't usually do it on purpose but when you wink you do it on purpose. So that equals both, involuntary and voluntary. But technically involuntary muscles are muscles you have no control over, such as in your heart and intestines. I'd say this is something more voluntary, but I'm not 100% sure. I think there was also the issue that some muscles are neither voluntary or involuntary, but rather just something else (it would be like how we have the general labels proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates but there are other types that are less broad and encompass less things); this would be in the same groups as muscles like your diaphragm. I'm still not sure about any of this though...
