Non-striated muscles, also known as smooth muscles, are found in various organs and structures throughout the body. Examples include the muscles in the walls of blood vessels, the digestive tract (such as the stomach and intestines), and the respiratory system (like the bronchi). These muscles are involuntary, meaning they function autonomously without conscious control, facilitating processes such as digestion and circulation.

The only way to control your muscles is by using the nervous system.

What is the involunrary in the human body?
Involuntary muscles are either nonstriated or striated. They are found in the walls of hollow organs, in your eyes and around your hair follicles. Cardiac or heart muscle cells appear striated under a microscope because of the large number of contractile proteins in the cells. Smooth muscles are involuntary because they contract through stimulation from your nervous system, without you actively controlling their movement. Hope it answers your question :-)
