Answer:

Cardiac muscle tissue

Explanation:

Myocardium or heart muscle is a special type of muscle (differ than striated and smooth) and it is the main tissue of the walls of the heart.

Heart muscle consists of individual heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) which are joined together by intercalated discs. It also contains  collagen fibres and other substances that form the extracellular matrix.

Heart muscle has a "special" mode of contraction: action potential triggers the release of calcium ions from the cell's internal store, the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
