Striated muscles refer to skeletal muscles, which are under voluntary control and exhibit a striped appearance due to their structure. Smooth muscles, on the other hand, are involuntary muscles found in walls of hollow organs, like the intestines and blood vessels, and lack striations. Cardiac muscle is a specialized striated muscle found only in the heart, characterized by its unique rhythmic contraction and intercalated discs that facilitate communication between cells. Each type of muscle serves distinct functions in the body, contributing to movement, digestion, and circulation.
