I HAVE ONLY WRITTEN ABOUT CARDIAC AND SMOOTH CELL.
Cardiac Muscles:•
Found only in heart and at cardiac ends of main blood vessels.
• Contract involuntarily.
• Striated when viewed under a microscope.
• Do not fatigue.• Contract rhythmically.
• Controlled by the central nervous system, but can contract without signals due to "pacemaker" cells.
• Contain high count of mitochondria and myoglobin.
• Have good blood supply.
Smooth Muscles:•
Get their name from their smooth appearance under a microscope.
• Arranged in bundles of muscle fibre sheets.
• Contract involuntarily. Regulated by autonomic part of nervous system.
• Found in walls of hollow structures, including veins, arteries, and intestines.
• Maintain flow of fluid and food along hollow structures.
• Found in hair erectors, pupils, gland ducts, esophagus, bronchi, intestines, stomach, and blood vessels.
• Contract slowly and rhythmically.
• Fatigue slowly.
