Detailed explanation-1: -Involuntary muscles are striated and branched in the case of cardiac muscle. The actions of involuntary muscles are mainly controlled by the autonomic nervous system in the body. These involuntary muscles include smooth muscles and cardiac muscles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Smooth muscle is composed of involuntary muscles found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, and blood vessels. These muscles push materials like food or blood through organs. Unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle can never be under your control.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Smooth muscle cells are spindle shaped, have a single, centrally located nucleus, and lack striations. They are called involuntary muscles.

Detailed explanation-5: -Voluntary muscles can be controlled by our conscious thought, e.g. the muscles in our hands as we catch a ball. Involuntary muscles, like those that control the beating of the heart, do not require conscious thought to make them move even though their action is still controlled by the nervous system.
