skeletal and cardiac muscle are striated
Skeletal muscles.
The three types of muscles are skeletal (striated, voluntary; e.g., biceps brachii), cardiac (striated, involuntary; i.e., myocardium), and smooth muscles (smooth, involuntary; e.g., gut).
There are smooth and striated muscles. Smooth muscles are involuntary and striated are voluntary. Cardiac muscles (the one that makes up the human heart) can also be considered its own category.
They are striated because striated means kind of stripey and the muscles has stripes of muscle itself.
Your voluntary muscles are referred as striated muscles.
Skeletal muscles are striated which look "striped". The best example of striated muscles is in your thighs. By comparison, your heart is smooth muscle.
No, cardiac muscle is striated but involuntary.
Yes, the muscles in the arm, specifically the skeletal muscles, are striated. Striated muscles have a banded appearance due to the organized arrangement of muscle fibers and proteins, which enable voluntary movement. In contrast, smooth muscles found in internal organs are not striated, and cardiac muscle has its own distinct striated structure.
