Muscle cells can be identified by their elongated and striated appearance, particularly in skeletal muscle, which has a banded pattern due to the arrangement of actin and myosin filaments. They are typically multinucleated, especially in skeletal muscle, whereas cardiac muscle cells have a single central nucleus. Additionally, smooth muscle cells are spindle-shaped and lack striations. The presence of specific proteins like myoglobin in cardiac muscle and smooth muscle's involuntary control further distinguishes them.
