They are all in different places.

Skeletal muscles are striated and are the muscles that are in voluntary control. These include biceps(arm), pectoralis major(chest) and other muscles that you can move. These muscles are striated and has many nuclei.

Smooth muscles are not striated and are the muscles that are not in voluntary control. These include organs and blood vessels, excluding heart. These muscles are unstriated with one nucleus. Smooth muscles has only one nucleus.

There is only one place where cardiac muscle is found: the heart. Also called myocardium, this muscle is striated and has one nucleus. Cardiac muscle also contains intercalated disc, which acts as a junction between the two muscle cells.

Which has a banded appearance skeletal cardiac or smooth muscle tissues?

skeletal


Muscle that appears banded?

The muscle that appears banded is skeletal muscle. Its banded appearance, known as striations, is due to the arrangement of muscle fibers and the presence of overlapping sarcomeres containing actin and myosin filaments. Skeletal muscle is responsible for voluntary movements in the body.

In what three ways can muscle cells be classified?

Muscle cells can be classified based on their structure as either skeletal, smooth, or cardiac muscle cells. These types of muscle cells differ in their appearance and function. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and help with voluntary movements, smooth muscles are found in the walls of organs and blood vessels, and cardiac muscles are unique to the heart.


What are the differences between smooth muscle and striated muscle in terms of their structure and function?

Smooth muscle and striated muscle differ in their structure and function. Smooth muscle lacks striations and is found in organs like the intestines and blood vessels, where it contracts involuntarily. Striated muscle, like skeletal and cardiac muscle, has a striped appearance and is under voluntary control. Skeletal muscle is responsible for movement, while cardiac muscle pumps blood throughout the body.


Skeletal muscle fibers differ from typical cells in that these muscle fibers?

contain multiple nuclei and are elongated, allowing for contraction and relaxation to generate movement in the body. They also have a striated appearance due to the arrangement of myofilaments within the cell, which aids in the sliding filament mechanism of muscle contraction.


What increases mucsle strength?

age and muscle mass


How does the contraction mechanism of smooth muscle compare to that of skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle?

Smooth muscle, skeletal muscle, and cardiac muscle all contract in response to signals from the nervous system or hormones. However, the contraction mechanism of smooth muscle is different from that of skeletal and cardiac muscle. Smooth muscle contracts more slowly and can sustain contractions for longer periods of time compared to skeletal and cardiac muscle. Additionally, smooth muscle does not have striations like skeletal and cardiac muscle, which gives it a more uniform appearance.
