Types of Muscles

The human body has three types of muscles:

1. Skeletal muscles: These are voluntary muscles attached to bones. They are striated and under conscious control.
2. Smooth muscles: These are involuntary muscles found in internal organs like the digestive tract and blood vessels. They are non-striated and not under conscious control.
3. Cardiac muscles: These are found only in the heart. They are involuntary, striated muscles with properties of both skeletal and smooth muscles.

Each type of muscle has a specific structure and function, contributing to various movements and processes in the body.
