It is always working.


It even works while the person is sleeping to push saliva down the throat.

Answer:

Tongue can be considered as the strongest muscle of the body as it has the greatest strength endurance as it is not affected by its working.

It keeps on performing its function whole day and night without a single sign of fatigue.

In helps in the production of saliva for the breakdown of food into smaller molecules for digestion.

So, it can considered as the muscle having greatest muscle endurance.
