endocardium
What it the smooth shiny innermost lining of the heart?
The smooth layer of cells lining the inside of the heart is the endocardium. It provides protection for the heart chambers and valves.
What forms the inner surface of the heart?
Endocardium is the innermost layer of tissue that lines the chambers of the heart.
What is the smooth inner tissue of the heart?
Epithelial tissue called endocardium lines in inside of cahmbers of the heart. This provides a smooth surface that minimizes friction as blood flows from one chamber to another.
