Cardiac muscle is the muscle that your heart uses, this type of muscle never tires, skeletal muscle is like the muscle you use to contract your arm, and smooth muscle is the muscle your stomache and other similair organs use to push food through your system.

∙ 13y agoif you think twice there is only one cardiac muscle and that is the one in the heart so if the teacher made you write more than just be like but wiki answers said that there was only one which is in the heart.

What are the 3 types of muscle?
voluntary muscles, smooth muscles, and cardiac muscles
What are some different types of muscles?
There are three muscle types, skeletal, smooth and cardiac. Skeletal and cardiac are both striated muscle, whereas smooth muscle is not.
What type of muscle tissue is voluntarily controlled?
Generally, skeletal muscle is voluntarily controlled and smooth muscle is not. Some structures have a combination of both. For example, the bladder is made up of smooth muscle and consists of some skeletal muscle at the sphincter which is capable of "holding" it until you are ready.
Do you have about 640 muscles in your body that you can control?
No. there are several different types of muscles within our bodies.These muscle groups are:Skeletal Muscle- what everyone is familiar with such as our Biceps our Abs etcCardiac Muscle- Cardiac = Myocardium -> Our heartSmooth Muscle- Such as blood vessels, pupilsThe involuntary muscles are the Smooth muscles and the Cardiac Muscles. You can put an effect on these muscles but they will work and do their job without you thinking about them, and I am sure for some of them you didn't know were even muscles.
What are the muscles called that cannot be controlled?
There are some muscles in the body we cannot control: they are called involuntary muscles and cardiac muscles. Involuntary muscles are found in the digestive tract for example. Cardiac muscles are found in the heart. Neither these two muscle types are controlled. We can control what are called voluntary muscles which are the muscles that were used to move our bones.
What is the classification of the muscular system?
The muscular system is an organ system consisting of skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles. It permits movement of the body, maintains posture, and circulates blood throughout the body. The muscular system in vertebrates is controlled through the nervous system, although some muscles (such as the cardiac muscle) can be completely autonomous.There are three distinct types of muscles: skeletal muscles, cardiac or heart muscles, and smooth (non-striated) muscles. Muscles provide strength, balance, posture, movement and heat for the body to keep warm.CARDIAC MUSCLE:Heart muscles are distinct from skeletal muscles because the muscle fibers are laterally connected to each other. Furthermore, just as with smooth muscles, they are not controlling themselves. Heart muscles are controlled by the sinus node influenced by the autonomic nervous system.SMOOTH MUSCLE:Smooth muscles are controlled directly by the autonomic nervous system and are involuntary, meaning that they are incapable of being moved by conscious thought. Functions such as heart beat and lungs (which are capable of being willingly controlled, be it to a limited extent) are involuntary muscles but are not smooth muscles.
Name some involuntary muscles?
heart
Where is the cardiac stomach?
The cardiac portion of the stomach is in the lower section of the stomach. It is also called the "cardia". It is the place where most carbohydrate digestion occurs. It also stores ingested food.
Where is the only place you can find cardiac muscles?
Cardiac muscle is a type of involuntary striated muscle found only in the walls of the heart. This is a specialized muscle that, while similar in some fundamental ways to smooth muscle and skeletal muscle, has a unique structure and with an ability not possessed by muscle tissue elsewhere in the body. Cardiac muscle, like other muscles, can contract, but it can also carry an action potential (i.e. conduct electricity), like the neurons that constitute nerves.Furthermore, some of the cells have the ability to generate an action potential, known as cardiac muscle automaticity (meaning the can and do beat on their own).
What do muscles do list two different functions of muscles?
Some muscles (skeletal muscles) will not contract unless stimulated by neurons; other muscles (smooth & cardiac) will contract without nervous stimulation but their contraction can be influenced by the nervous system. Thus, the nervous and muscle systems are closely interconnected.
What are the jobs of bones and muscles?
Bones have 5 jobs. They support the body and give it shape. They protect organs inside the body. They work with muscles to help the body move. Some bones help make blood cells and the store some minerals that the body needs.
Name the organs of the skeletal system?
once apon a time, their was a little boy named rick. He was verry confused about his sexuality and theirforwas made fun of, now a little girl named gigidy saved him from sharks and bob th builder bought some bread.
