Verified step by step guidance1
Begin by understanding the different types of muscle tissue in the human body: skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle.
Recognize that skeletal muscle is attached to bones and is responsible for movement. It is characterized by its striated appearance and is under voluntary control.
Cardiac muscle is found in the heart and is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body. It is striated like skeletal muscle but operates involuntarily.
Smooth muscle is found in the walls of hollow organs such as the intestines and blood vessels. It is non-striated and also operates involuntarily.
Connective tissue is not a type of muscle tissue but rather supports, connects, or separates different types of tissues and organs in the body.
