Q: Differentiate between Striated, unstriated and Cardiac muscles on the basis of their structure and      location in the body?


Ans:  Striated----   Cells are cylindrical, not branched, multi nucleate. Alternate light and dark band                                  present. Its end are blunt.
                               Location : present in our body part such as hand, leg, tongue etc.

       
         Unstriated---  Cells are long, not branched, uni nucleate, without any band and its end are                                          tapering.
                                 Location : It controls the movement of food in alimentary canal, contraction
                                                  and relaxation of blood vessels.

       Cardiac Muscle ----- Cells are cylindrical, branched,uni nucleate, in which faint band are                                                        present. Its end are flat and wavy.
                                 Location : Muscles control the contraction and relaxation of the heart.
