Solution

The correct option is D

Cardiac muscle


Highly specialized cardiac muscle tissue is found only in the myocardium of the heart which is an involuntary muscle but has some striations as well. It keeps the heart beating rhythmically and in an uninterrupted fashion throughout the lifetime of an organism. The skeletal muscles are also striated but they are under the control of the peripheral nervous system.
