Skeletal muscle is voluntary muscle that moves bones. It has long cells with striations and it is sometimes called striated muscle.
Smooth muscle is slow moving, and is not controlled by the mind. It is also has the same functional units as skeletal muscle but it is harder to see.
The last is cardiac muscle. This also has striations but they are short rather than long. This muscle is said to be autorhythmic. Each cell can beat on its' own and as a group, they beat together.

Skeletal muscles are designed to give maximum strength - the drawback to this is that they can only operate for a short while. Try holding your arm out straight level for an hour. Cardiac muscles are designed to work continuously (short bursts but forever) - the drawback to this is that their maximum effort is only mediocre. Skeletal muscles are attached to your bones,smooth muscles work in your organs,and cardiac muscles work in your heart.

What are skeletal muscles like?
Skeletal muscles are spindle, flat-shaped or circular in shape. The circular ones have attachments called "heads" at their ends. Most of the skeletal muscles are attached to bones by cord-like tendons. Some of these muscles are attached to skin, cartilage, or other structures in the body such as the eye ball. Some of these muscles have intermediate tendons as well as aponeurosis.
