|
Cardiac Muscle Tissue |
The cardiac muscle is located on the heart. The structure of the cardiac muscle has branched ends and one nucleus per cell. Like the skeletal muscle, the cardiac muscle is striated too. However, the movement of the cardiac muscle is not voluntary. |

Smooth muscle tissue is located near the walls of hollow organs. The structure of the smooth muscle has no striations, one nucleus per cell, and the ends of the cells are narrow. Like cardiac muscle, smooth muscle has involuntary control. |
