Smooth muscle is not striated and is not under voluntary control. Your digestive system contains smooth muscle that is involuntary, which causes the digested food to move along the digestive tract in a motion called peristalsis.

A tissue composed of long striated cells with multiple nuclei is?

Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of long striated cells with multiple nuclei. These cells are voluntary muscles responsible for body movement and are under conscious control. Skeletal muscle tissue is classified as striated due to its alternating light and dark banding pattern when viewed under a microscope.

What is skeletal muscle tissue?

Skeletal tissue is one of the three types of muscle tissues. This tissues are striated and are attached to the skeleton. Skeletal or striated muscle is called voluntary because willed or voluntary control of skeletal muscle contractions is possible. When viewed under a microscope, skeletal muscle is characterized by many cross striations and many nuclei per cell. Individual cells are long and threadlike and are often called fibers. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and when contracted produce voluntary and controlled body movements.
