Are tendons primarily made up of cardiac tissue?
No, only the heart is made up of cardiac tissue.
What type of muscle is found only in the walls of the heart?
Cardiac muscle forms the muscular wall of the heart. Cardiac muscle is involuntary muscle.
What muscle tissue moves the heart?
If you mean what kind of muscle tissues it is a special tissue found only in the heart called cardiac muscle tissue. It sometimes referred to by professionals as myocardium.
What muscle is only found in the walls of the heart?
cardiac muscle tissue
What kind of tissue is the Circulatory System made up of?
the answer is cardiac tissue. this type of tissue is only found in the heart.
Why couldn't your heart have only cardiac tissue?
Your heart could not have only cardiac tissue because the different types of tissues (connective, fibrous, muscle, etc.) all perform certain functions and also work together.
Does your heart have anything to do with the muscular system?
Yes, the heart itself is mostly made of muscle, the cardiac muscle, plus connective tissue. Cardiac Muscle is only found in the heart.

What is made out of cardiac muscle in the circulatory system?
The heart is the only thing in the body that is made up of the specialized tissue in cardiac muscle
What are the muscles only found in your heart?
The only muscle found in the heart is cardiac muscle.
Involuntary muscle tissue found in the heart?
Cardiac muscle tissue is the involuntary muscle tissue found in the heart. It is striated and contracts to pump blood throughout the body. This type of muscle is highly specialized and functions to maintain the continuous beating of the heart.
Why does the heart has different types of tissues?
The heart does consist or atria, ventricles, etc. but these are the gross, anatomical divisions of the heart. In asking about the kinds of tissues contained in the heart, we have to think of the cells found there. The heart obviously contains cardiac muscle, it is practically the only site where it is found, except for the transitions between the heart and the large vessels arising from it. Cardiac muscle consist of the typical cardiac muscle cells, which are di-nucleated, branched cells which connect to each other at intercalated disks, making the heart muscle a functional syncitium. In addition, the heart contains modified cardiac muscle cells called Purkinje cells. These cells transmit electrical impulses to the ventricles, to stimulate them to contract. The heart also contains connective tissue, serving various purposes, such as binding groups of cardiac muscle cells into fascicles, etc.
