Tissues (histo-) are similar cells working together toward the same goal. General words include histology (hist = tissue + log = study + y = process) and histogenesis (histo = tissue + genesis = origin).

When referring to muscle tissue, the term depends on the working conditions of the muscle or where it is located.

Type: skeletal or cardiac or viseral (smooth) muscle.

Location: myocardium (muscle [tissue] of the heart)

muscularis (muscle layer of the digestive system)

myometrium (muscle layer of the uterus)
