Classify the following descriptions based on the type of muscle they represent. Smooth muscle Cardiac muscle Skeletal muscle Well-organized in bundles surrounded by connective tissue Fibers are multinucleated Found only in the walls of the heart Contain fascicles Fibers are nonstriated and shaped like narrow cylinders with pointed ends Involuntary Found in the walls of internal organs and Fibers are striated and tubular

Match the characteristic given to one of the types of muscles. a) smooth muscle b) skeletal muscle c) both cardiac and skeletal muscle d) cardiac muscle 1) Cells or fibers appear striated (banded) 2) Cells are large, long, and cylindrical, with many nuclei located at the periphery 3) Pumps the blood 4) Moves the body 5) Cells are branched and connected to one another by intercalated discs 6) Is under voluntary (conscious) control 7) Controls the amount of light entering the eye 8) Is located in the heart

Muscle tissue Place the following characteristics and images into the correct box to describe and show the three muscle tissue types. Some choices will be used more than once: spindle-shaped, nonstriated, uninucleated fibers involuntary occurs in walls of heart occurs in walls of viscera and blood vessels has striated, branched, uninucleated fibers has striated, tubular; multinucleated fibers usually attached to skeleton voluntary Smooth muscle Skeletal muscle Cardiac muscle
The human body has three types of muscle: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. Each has unique properties. Match the property according to the type of muscle described: Skeletal Muscle - Long and multinucleated - No striations Cardiac Muscle - Multinucleated - Striated, intercalated discs Smooth Muscle - Short and uninucleated - No striations
