Longitudinal and circular muscles. These are known as antagonistic muscles, meaning that one relaxes whilst the other contracts.
Smooth muscle is located in various organs and structures throughout the human body, including the walls of blood vessels, the digestive tract, the urinary bladder, and the respiratory system.

In the walls of the tract organs
Smooth muscle tissue is the type of muscle tissue found in the walls of many organs and blood vessels in the body.
The 3 different types of muscle are smooth, cardiac, and skeletal muscle. Smooth muscle is located on the walls of hollow organs, cardiac muscle is located on the wall of the heart, and skeletal muscle is located on skeletal muscle organs (most organs). Their functions include movement in walls of hollow organs, pumping of blood, and movement of bones, heat production and posture, respectively. Cardiac and smooth muscle are involuntary, whereas skeletal muscle is voluntary. Both cardiac and skeletal muscles have striations, but smooth muscle does not.
Actually, striated muscles are typically found in the skeletal muscles of the body responsible for voluntary movements, while smooth muscles are located in the walls of internal organs like the digestive tract to facilitate involuntary movements, such as peristalsis.
