This type of muscle tissue is found in the walls of hollow organs such as the stomach, and blood vessels
A
Skeletal
B
Cardiac
C
Smooth
D
All of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -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-3: -Smooth muscle is found in the wall of hollow organs, passageways, tracts, eye and skin. Fibers of smooth muscle group in branching bundles, which allows for cells to contract much stronger than those of striated musculature.

Detailed explanation-4: -Single-unit smooth muscle is found in the walls of hollow organs; multiunit smooth muscle is found in airways to the lungs and large arteries. Single-unit smooth muscle cells contract synchronously, they are coupled by gap junctions, and they exhibit spontaneous action potential.

Detailed explanation-5: -Epithelial tissues are widespread throughout the body. They form the covering of all body surfaces, line body cavities and hollow organs, and are the major tissue in glands.
