Detailed explanation-1: -Smooth muscle, found in the walls of the hollow internal organs such as blood vessels, the gastrointestinal tract, bladder, and uterus, is under control of the autonomic nervous system. Smooth muscle cannot be controlled consciously and thus acts involuntarily.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cardiac muscle cells are located in the walls of the heart, appear striped (striated), and are under involuntary control. Smooth muscle fibers are located in walls of hollow visceral organs (such as the liver, pancreas, and intestines), except the heart, appear spindle-shaped, and are also under involuntary control.
Detailed explanation-3: -Peristalsis. the involuntary movement of smooth muscles.
Detailed explanation-4: -Smooth muscle differs from skeletal muscle in a variety of ways, perhaps the most important being its ability to be contracted and controlled involuntarily. The nervous system can use smooth muscle to tightly regulate many of the body’s subsystems for life with no thought from the user.
Detailed explanation-5: -Smooth muscles are found in the posterior part of oesophagus, stomach, intestine, blood vessels, iris of eye and dermis of skin. They are involuntary as their functioning cannot be directly controlled. Action of these muscles is controlled by autonomic nervous system.
