How does a Cardiac Muscle function?
A
Cardiac muscle tissue works to keep your heart pumping through involuntary movements. This is one feature that differentiates it from skeletal muscle tissue, which you can control.
B
I really want to go to work, but I am too sick to drive.
C
A Cardiac muscle functions based on how many grapes you eat every 3 days
D
A Cardiac muscle functions based on how many carrots you eat a day
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cardiac muscle tissue works to keep your heart pumping through involuntary movements. This is one feature that differentiates it from skeletal muscle tissue, which you can control. It does this through specialized cells called pacemaker cells. These control the contractions of your heart.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cardiac muscle is responsible for the contractility of the heart and, therefore, the pumping action. The cardiac muscle must contract with enough force and enough blood to supply the metabolic demands of the entire body. This concept is termed cardiac output and is defined as heart rate x stroke volume.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cardiac muscle tissue, or myocardium, contains cells that expand and contract in response to electrical impulses from the nervous system. These cardiac cells work together to produce the rhythmic, wave-like contractions that is the heartbeat.

Detailed explanation-4: -The primary function of the cardiac muscle is to regulate the functioning of the heart by the relaxation and contraction of the heart muscles. Other functions of cardiac muscles include: The cardiac muscles function as the involuntary muscle. The cardiac muscles are also involved in the movement or the locomotion.

Detailed explanation-5: -Regular exercise makes the cardiac muscles strong. Eat heart-healthy foods. Do not over stress and avoid the oil foods.
