Cardiac muscles work continuously without tiring from early embryonic stage till death.
Cardiac muscles are the muscles of heart. Based on appearance, cardiac muscles are striated. They are involuntary in nature as the nervous system does not control their activities directly. These muscles are branched, possess excitability, contractility, extensibility and elasticity. Hence, control the contraction and relaxation of the heart. The rhythmic contraction and relaxation of cardiac muscles occurs throughout life. These help in pumping blood throughout the body.
