Sternocleidomastoid muscles.

Explanation:

The neck movements like flexion, rotation, extension, lateral rotation and flexion are carried out by neck muscles which include the sternocleidomastoid muscle,  

The sternocleidomastoid muscle is a pair of muscle located superficially in the anterior neck.

The sternocleidomastoid muscles connects skull with the clavicle and hence is involved the head and neck motions.

The `bilateral contraction movements of sternocleidomastoid muscles aids in flexion of the neck and brings the chin down towards the breastbone.  

Platysma is a facial muscle and involved in facial expressions and mandibular movements

Semispinalis muscle is in the posterior neck and maintains posture and head movements.

Trapezius muscles lies at the back of the head.

Musculo que tiene las características tanto de musculo esquelético como de musculo liso. Se encuentra en el corazón y sus contra
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

músculo cardíaco

Explanation:

Los 3 tipos de tejido muscular son 1-músculo cardíaco o miocardio (involuntario), 2-músculo liso (involuntario) y 3-músculo esquelético (voluntario). Las células del músculo cardíaco, las cuales son conocidas como 'miocardiocitos', poseen una apariencia estriada y forman la pared del corazón. Los miocardiocitos son alargados, ramificados, y poseen un núcleo central (son células uninucleadas, a diferencia de las células del músculo esquelético, las cuales son multinucleadas). Además, los micardicitos son más cortos (80 a 100 µm) y más anchos (aprox. 15 µm) que las células del músculo esquelético. Los miocardiocitos presentan uniones especializadas conocidas como discos intercalares, los cuales son un tipo de complejo de unión entre los límites de dos cardiomiocitos. En el citoplasma de los cardiomiocitos se encuentran las miofibrillas, las cuales son estructuras contráctililes que les confieren a las células musculares sus propiedades características de contracción y de elasticidad. En estas células (cardiomiocitos) las miofibrillas se disponen de manera longitudininal con un patrón estriado.
