Answer 1

Answer: striated =1. it has many nuclies

2. It is cylinder unbranched and long tissue

3. It is attached to bone and help in movements

Cardiac =1. These muscle help in contraction and relaxation of heart

2. It is cylinder branched and uninucleat (or one nucleus )

3. It is present in heart

Explanation:

Answer 2

Smooth muscles are found in inner organs while cardiac muscles are found only in the heart.

• Cardiac muscles are striated, but smooth muscles are non-striated.

• Each cardiac muscle cell has one or more nuclei, but the smooth muscle cells are single nucleated.

• Cardiac muscle cells are often branched, but smooth cells are non-branched.

• Smooth muscle cells are fusiform-shaped, but cardiac muscle cells are long and cylindrical.
