What is Cardiac and Smooth Muscle Overview about?
Cardiac muscle tissue forms the heart and contracts involuntarily to pump blood through the body. It is located in the heart wall and has a striated structure. Smooth muscle lines internal organs and contracts more slowly, functioning in digestion, birth, and blood flow. Both muscle types contract involuntarily but cardiac muscle has a faster rhythm. Disorders can result from genetic mutations affecting contraction.
