INTESTINE
The thick layer of the heart wall that contains contractile cardiac muscle tissue is the myocardium. The layer of the heart wall synonymous with the visceral layer of the serous pericardium is epicardium.
visceral pericardium
Heart.the heartIt's not just the heart. You also have other organs like the stomach, uterus, bladder, blood vessels or intestine. (Where smooth muscle is found)Also note if you are associating hollow visceral organs with smooth muscle. It is NOT found in the heart, as it is a cardiac muscle.
it contracts rhythmically
Another name for epicardium is the visceral pericardium. It is the inner layer of the pericardium, a double-layered sac surrounding the heart.
yes it's called the visceral pericardium
Medulla.
yes the heart contains protein because muscle is made of protein and the heart is a huge muscle.
Pericardium: visceral- lining organ, parietal-= cavity lining Epicardium- surface if the heart Myocardium- muscle wall, cardiac muscle Endocardium- inner lining- chamber walls
The layers of the HEART {outermost-innermost} 1. Epicardium {This is the outer layer is also known as VISCERAL PERICARDIUM and contains fat, which helps to cushion the heart} 2. Myocardium {This middle layer is the thickest layer of the wall and is made primarily of cardiac muscle} Endocardium {This innermost layer is thin and very smooth, and stretches as the heart pumps blood}
Visceral muscles, which are under involuntary control, come in two forms. They are the smooth muscle tissue and cardiac muscle tissue, found only in the heart.
The human heart contains cardiac muscle. This muscle type is involuntary.
