1. Cardiac muscles are involuntary. They function automatically without conscious control, ensuring that the heart beats continuously to pump blood throughout the body. This automaticity is regulated by the autonomic nervous system and specialized cardiac cells known as pacemaker cells.

  3. Heart muscle cells, or cardiomyocytes, are typically branched and cylindrical in shape with a single central nucleus. However, some cardiomyocytes may have two nuclei, aiding in their efficient contraction and function.

  4. Smooth muscle cells are spindle-shaped, non-striated, and uninucleate. They have a smooth appearance, unlike striated muscles, and contract involuntarily. These cells are capable of sustained contractions and are found in various internal organs and blood vessels.

  5. Smooth muscles are found in the walls of internal organs such as the stomach, intestines, blood vessels, and bladder. They help regulate involuntary movements like digestion, blood flow, and the contraction of organs.
