Heart muscle is striated but not in the same way that skeletal muscle is. Cardiac muscle is a type of involuntary striated muscle found only in the walls of the heart.
Cardiac and skeletal muscle are similar in that both appear to be striated in that they contain sarcomeres. In striated muscle, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle, the actin and myosin filaments each have a specific and constant length on the order of a few micrometers, far less than the length of the elongated muscle cell (a few millimeters in the case of human skeletal muscle cells).
The filaments are organized into repeated subunits along the length. These subunits are called sarcomeres. The sarcomeres are what give skeletal and cardiac muscles their striated appearance of narrow dark and light bands, because of the parallel arrangement of the actin and myosin filaments.
However, cardiac muscle has unique features relative to skeletal muscle. For one, the myocytes are much shorter and are narrower than the skeletal muscle cells, being about 0.1 millimeters long and 0.02 millimeters wide .
Furthermore, while skeletal muscles are arranged in regular, parallel bundles, cardiac muscle connects at branching, irregular angles.
Anatomically, the muscle fibers are typically branched like a tree branch. In addition, cardiac muscle fibers connect to other cardiac muscle fibers through intercalcated discs and form the appearance of a syncytium (continuous cellular material).
These intercalcated discs, which appear as irregularly-spaced dark bands between myocytes, are a unique and prominent feature of cardiac muscle .
The role of non-striated muscles in the stomach is to churn foods for digestion. Non-striated muscles are smooth and have involuntary movement.
the smooth muscles are non striated,we have smooth muscles in many areas of the body,especially in the wall of digestive system organs.
by microscopic appearance (striated and non-striated) , location , and movement (voluntary and involuntary)
The features that distinguish the three types of muscular tissue are structure, location, function, and means of activation. Structure can include straiated, smooth or rough. Location is where in the body . Function can include beating the heart, lifting an object. Finally means of activation could be voluntary or involuntary.
nonvascular
The role of non-striated muscles in the stomach is to churn foods for digestion. Non-striated muscles are smooth and have involuntary movement.
Non striated
The cardiac muscles can be classified as voluntary striated and involuntary non-striated.
straited produces movements and unstraited do not. straited are multinucleated and unstraited are uni-nucleated. straited has straitions of regular white and black band and unstraited is simple and smooth. striated muscle are voluntary while non -striated muscles r involuntary.. striated muscle r control by nervous system while non - striated muscles are control by chemical control system . striated muscles show rapid action while non- striated muscles show slow n steady action of work :) :)
There are three types of muscle tissue. Cardiac, which is the heart. Striated, or skeletal muscles and smooth muscle tissue. The smooth muscles create waves that move food down the esophagus and through the intestines. The wave motion is called peristalsis.
Both skeletal and cardiac muscles are striated muscles.
the smooth muscles are non striated,we have smooth muscles in many areas of the body,especially in the wall of digestive system organs.
Smooth muscles are an involuntary non-striated muscles. It is divided into two sub-groups; the Single unit (unitary) and multiunit smooth muscle Hope this helps! :)
Involuntary muscles are muscles you can't control, there are two main types - smooth muscle (non-striated). examples of this include your gastrointestinal tract (oesophagus, stomach, colon), even your blood vessels have smooth muscle -cardiac muscle (your heart), a special type of smooth muscle
Involuntary Muscle Immerse yourself medical language, page 431: "Smooth muscles are involuntary, nonstriated muscles."
On this basis you can classify it into two groups; one is called involuntary and the other one is known as voluntary. There is another way to classify muscles and in this classification morphology is taken into consideration. In accordance with this classification, there are two types of muscles; one is called striated and another one is called non-striated.
the muscles produce movement through contraction and relaxation. they can be skeletal muscles, smooth muscles or cardiac muscles skeletal muscles are voluntary muscles,that we use for locomotion and other activities.we can control their actions. they are straited muscles. smooth musles are the involuntary muscles that are present in the walls of respiratory, urinary, gastro-intestinal and genital tract and muscles of iris. we cannot voluntarily control them.they are non striated muscles. example - we cannot control digestion. cardiac muscles are involuntary but striated
