Smooth muscle is found in all hollow tubes or organs except the heart.
Smooth muscle is found in hollow visceral organs, like the stomach, intestines, uterus, bladder, and blood vessels/arteries. (Smooth muscle doesn't apply to the heart though, that's cardiac muscle)
Smooth muscle makes up your intestines but Cardiac muscle makes up your arteries.
yes
In visceral organs: for example, the stomach, urinary bladder, small intestines. Smooth muscle cells are also found in arteries and arterioles
- Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibres known as tendons. 2) Smooth muscle: Smooth muscle generally forms the supporting tissue of blood vessels and hollow internal organs, such as the stomach, intestine, and bladder.
cardiac muscle walls of the stomach and intestines walls of blood vessels
A really easy way to remember this is that smooth muscle is found in all hollow organs except the heart.
Blood vessels are surrounded by smooth muscle. This is often known as visceral muscle. This type of muscle also lines the blood vessels and internal organs.
The myometrium is a smooth muscle tissue of the uterus. A muscle that contracts without conscious control and found in walls of internal organs such as stomach and intestine and bladder and blood vessels (excluding the heart).
Smooth muscle Tissue have no striations. (there are 3 types of muscle tissue - Skeletal, Cardiac, and Smooth) Smooth propels substances along internal passageways involuntarily.
The rhythmic smooth muscle is called the visceral smooth muscle. It is found in the walls of organs such as the intestines, uterus, and blood vessels, and it contracts and relaxes spontaneously to generate rhythmic movements.
Cardiac muscle - found only around heart, involuntary Smooth - found in hollow internal structures - stomach, blood vessels, intestines. Involuntary Skeletal - Attached to bones, voluntary
