Smooth Muscle, Cardiac Muscle, & Skeletal Muscle
|
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: -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-3: -Skeletal muscle is an organ that primarily controls movement and posture. Cardiac muscle encompasses the heart, which keeps the human body alive. Smooth muscle is present throughout the gastrointestinal, reproductive, urinary, vascular, and respiratory systems.
