Detailed explanation-2: -Skeletal muscle fibers are red and white. They look striated, or striped, so they’re often called striated muscles. Cardiac muscles are also striated, but smooth muscles aren’t.

Detailed explanation-3: -Striation: Muscle tissue in which the contractile fibrils in the cells are aligned in parallel bundles, so that their different regions form stripes visible in a microscope. Cardiac muscle (myocardium): Involuntary, striated muscle that constitutes the main tissue of the walls of the heart.
