• C. Cardiac and unstriated
• D. Unstriated, striated and cardiac

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Unstriated, striated and cardiac

There are three types of muscle tissue - smooth or unstriated, skeletal or striated, and cardiac.

• Smooth or unstriated muscles line the walls of internal organs like the stomach, intestine, lungs, etc. They are spindle-shaped involuntary muscles.
• Skeletal or striated muscles are voluntary muscles attached to the skeleton. They help in the movement of bones and the body.
• Cardiac muscles are involuntary muscles located in the walls of the heart. They appear striated and are branched.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
