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.

Only the heart contains Cardiac Muscle Tissue, it is also Striated and its actions is involuntary.
Smooth Muscle Tissue is located in the walls of hollow internal structures, like blood vessels, airways and most organs in the abdominopelvic cavity. it looks non-striated, which is why its referred to as smooth and its actions is usually involuntary.

∙ 12y agoSmooth - refers to the muscles that are controlled involuntarily by the brain, like those attached to the base of hair follicles or in the walls of the gastro-intestinal tract. The muscle has a single nucleus in the middle of the cell.
Skeletal - refers to most muscles that are under voluntary control. These are cylindrical and often pretty long (because they are multinucleated), with the nucleus on the edge of the muscle so as to not interfere with contractions.
Cardiac - refers to the muscles of the heart. These are not cylindrical, but branched, joining to other cardiac muscle.

How does the muscularis layer of the esophagus differ from the rest of the digestive tract?
Within the stomach and intestines, there are three layers of muscular tissue. These need to withstand high pressures and force the food material through the digestive system. In the esophagus the muscular layer is much thinner. It is also smoother in the esophagus.
