ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Skeletal muscle – the specialised tissue that is attached to bones and allows movement. Smooth muscle – located in various internal structures including the digestive tract, uterus and blood vessels such as arteries. Cardiac muscle – the muscle specific to the heart.

Detailed explanation-2: -Overview. The 3 types of muscle tissue are cardiac, smooth, and skeletal. Cardiac muscle cells are located in the walls of the heart, appear striped (striated), and are under involuntary control.

Detailed explanation-3: -Smooth muscle consists of two types single-unit and multi-unit. Single-unit smooth muscle consists of multiple cells connected through connexins that can be stimulated in a synchronous pattern from only one synaptic input. Connexins allow for cell-to-cell communication between groups of single-unit smooth muscle cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are two major types of cardiac muscle fibers: myocardial contractile cells and myocardial conducting cells (pacemaker cells).

Detailed explanation-5: -Skeletal: As part of the musculoskeletal system, these muscles work with your bones, tendons and ligaments. Cardiac: These muscles line the heart walls. Smooth: These muscles line the insides of organs such as the bladder, stomach and intestines. 29-Sept-2021
