This would be the muscularis layer of the intestines and uterus.

Smooth tissue refers to a type of tissue that lacks striation and is typically found in organs like blood vessels and the digestive tract. Muscle tissue encompasses three types: skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. Smooth tissue is a specific type of muscle tissue known as smooth muscle tissue.
A rhythmic contraction refers to a repeated pattern of muscle contractions at regular intervals. This can occur in various muscles in the body, including the heart muscle during the cardiac cycle. Rhythmic contractions are important for fundamental physiological processes such as pumping blood or generating movement.
This statement is incorrect. Muscle tissue can be either voluntary (skeletal muscle) or involuntary (smooth and cardiac muscle). Additionally, muscle cells (myocytes) have numerous mitochondria to provide energy for muscle contractions.

It is called involuntary muscle or smooth muscle.
Smooth muscle is not striated, hence the name smooth muscle.nonotcardiac muscle

By rhythmic movements called peristalsis. They are wavelike contractions of smooth muscle that propel food through the GI tract.
Smooth muscle tissue constricts the lumen of the small intestine involuntarily. This muscle tissue is responsible for moving food and materials through the digestive tract by contracting and relaxing in a rhythmic pattern.
Longitudinal and circular muscles. These are known as antagonistic muscles, meaning that one relaxes whilst the other contracts.
Intestines are lined with what are called smooth muscle tissue. These muscles differ primarily from the muscles attached, for example, to your joints in that their movement is rhythmic and involuntarily controlled. (The heart is another example of smooth muscle movement.) It is this rhythmic, involuntary contraction that moves food through the intestines.
