Question

Diff b/w striated,unstriated and cardiac muscle

Answer 1

hi friend

fference between Striated muscle, Unstriated muscle and Cardiac muscle on the basis of structure:

1. In striated muscle, cells are cylindrical. In unstriated muscle, cells are long. In cardiac muscle, cells are cylindrical.

2. Cells are not branched in striated and unstriated muscle. Cells are branched in cardiac muscle.

3. Cells are multinucleate in striated muscle. Cells are uninucleate in unstriated and cardiac muscle.

4. In striated, alternate light and dark bands are present. In unstriated muscle, there are no bands present. In cardiac, faint bands are present.

5. In striated, ends are blunt. In unstriated, ends are tapering. In cardiac, ends are flat and wavy.

Difference between Striated muscle, Unstriated muscle and Cardiac muscle on the basis of location:

1. Striated muscles are present in body parts such as hands, legs, tongue, etc. Unstriated muscles control the movement of food in the alimentary canal, the

contraction and relaxation of blood vessels, etc. Cardiac muscles control the contraction and relaxation of the heart.

hope it helps

Answer 2

STRIATED MUSCLE: They are voluntary muscles also known as skeletal muscles.They are long,cylindrical,unbranched and multinucleate.It is found in our limbs.

UNSTRIATED MUSCLE:They are involuntary muscles also known as smooth muscles.They are spindle shaped,unbranched and uninucleate.It is found in the muscles of the internal organs.

CARDIAC MUSCLE:They are involuntary muscles.They are long,cylindrical,branched and uninucleate.they are found only in the heart.
