PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Cardiac muscle, like skeletal muscle, is made up of sarcomeres that allow for contractility. However, unlike skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle is under involuntary control. The cardiac muscle is responsible for the contractility of the heart and, therefore, the pumping action.

Detailed explanation-2: -Our tongue is made up of voluntary muscles. Muscles that are under the control of one’s will are called voluntary muscles. Example: Skeletal muscle, composed of parallel bundles of striated, multinucleate fibres. Muscles that contract without conscious control are called involuntary muscles.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.
