The characteristics of the three types of muscles are as follows:
- Cardiac muscle; pumps blood, found only in the heart
- Smooth muscle: surrounds blood vessels, not striated, surrounds the bladder, surrounds the airway
- Skeletal muscle: used for locomotion, under voluntary control
<h3>What are muscles?</h3>
Muscles are a contractile form of tissue which animals use to effect movement.
The three types of muscles found in animals are as follows:
Cardiac muscles are the striated and involuntary muscle of the vertebrate heart.
Smooth muscles are involuntary muscle which is found within the intestines, throat, uterus, and blood vessel walls.
Skeletal muscles are the voluntary muscle of vertebrates, which is striated and anchored by tendons to bone and is used to effect skeletal movement such as locomotion.
