What muscle is found in body organs?

Give an example of a smooth muscle?
The muscle lining most organs in the body - e.g. wall of the intestine
Most organs are composed of?
Most organs are composed of epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and connective tissue
What muscle is the heart primarily composed of?
There are three types of muscles in the human body, smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and skeletal muscle. The Muscle that the heart is made out of is of course, cardiac muscle. The smooth muscle consist of the lining of the esophagus, the stomach and other internal organs, the skeletal muscles consist of more familiar muscle groups such as the hamstrings, quadriceps, biceps, abdominals, etc.

Internal organs usually do not move. Unless you mean the contraction of the heart, which is composed of cardiomyocytes. If you have experienced some strange movement of other organs you should contact your doctor.
What is an Example of smooth muscle?
Walls of hollow visceral organs such as your intestines.
What is the tissue that makes up organs that are able to contract or shorten?
The tissue that makes up organs that are able to contract or shorten is known as muscle tissue. Muscle tissue is composed of muscle cells that contain protein filaments that slide past each other, causing the muscle to contract and generate force. There are three types of muscle tissue: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth.
What is an example of involuntary muscle in the human body?
An example of involuntary muscle in the human body is the smooth muscle found in the walls of internal organs such as the stomach and intestines. These muscles work automatically without conscious control.
Is protection a function of muscles?
