Cardiac muscle is found only in the heart and is involuntary, meaning it operates automatically without conscious control. Its cells are striated and interconnected by intercalated discs, allowing for synchronized contractions. In contrast, skeletal muscle is attached to bones and is under voluntary control, enabling movement and posture. Skeletal muscle fibers are also striated but do not have intercalated discs, and they can contract more rapidly than cardiac muscle.
What else can I help you with?
What are similarities between skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle?
cardiac is cardiac and skeletal is skeletal.
Explain the difference between the two types of skeletal muscle tissue?
Skeletal muscle tissue differs from cardiac tissue in that skeletal muscles are striated muscles that require conscious stimulation to act, and cardiac muscles are smooth and basically run "automatically".
The difference between the structure of cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle?
One key difference between cardiac and skeletal muscles is that skeletal muscles are controlled by the nervous system, while cardiac muscles move involuntarily. In addition, cardiac muscles are only found in the heart, while skeletal muscles are found throughout the entire body.
What is the difference between the three muscle tissues?
The differences are that one is smooth, one is cardiac, and another is skeletal.
Whats the anatomical difference between smooth cardiac and skeletal muscles?
cardiac and skeletal muscles have one thing in common, that is they are both striated in contrast to the smooth muscles commonly found in the GIT. however the main difference between them is that cardiac muscles function involuntarily while skeletal muscles are under conscious control. --thoughtfulobserver
What are the 3 subtypes of muscle tissue?
Striated,smooth,and skelital cardiac, skeletal, and smooth
What are some different types of muscles?
There are three muscle types, skeletal, smooth and cardiac. Skeletal and cardiac are both striated muscle, whereas smooth muscle is not.
What is the difference between skeletal muscle cardiac muscle?
Sketal muscle is the stuff that pulls your bones around and lets you stand, walk, etc. Cardiac muscle is only present in the heart, and takes much longer to get tired.
What does it mean if a muscle is striated?
Striated muscle includes cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle. Cardiac muscle is found only in the heart. Skeletal muscle is between bones and is voluntarily controlled. Examples of skeletal muscle are the sternoclydomastoid, biceps, obicularis oris, rectus femoris, etc.
What are the key differences in the structure and function between skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle?
Skeletal muscle is attached to bones and helps with movement, while cardiac muscle is found in the heart and helps pump blood. Skeletal muscle is under voluntary control, while cardiac muscle is involuntary. Additionally, skeletal muscle has multiple nuclei per cell, while cardiac muscle has only one nucleus per cell.
Which muscle tissue has several nuclei per cell?
Smooth muscle tissue
What muscle tissue is multinucleated?
skeletal muscles
