Verified step by step guidance

Understand the types of muscle tissue: There are three types of muscle tissue in the human body - skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle.

Identify involuntary muscle types: Involuntary muscles are those that function without conscious control. These include cardiac and smooth muscles.

Differentiate between muscle types: Skeletal muscles are voluntary and are attached to bones, such as the biceps muscle. Cardiac muscle is found in the heart and is involuntary. Smooth muscle is also involuntary and is found in various internal structures.

Locate smooth muscle: Smooth muscle is found in the walls of hollow organs such as the digestive tract, blood vessels, and the respiratory tract.

Conclude the location of involuntary muscle: Based on the options provided, the walls of the digestive tract contain smooth muscle, which is involuntary, making it the correct answer.
