Solution

The correct option is C
Cardiac

Cardiac muscles are the muscles which are seen on the walls of the heart. These muscles control the contraction and relaxation of the heart. The cells of cardiac muscles are cylindrical in shape and are branched. Skeletal muscle is the only voluntary muscle tissue that can be controlled in a conscious condition. These are cylindrical cells with striations. Smooth muscles are involuntary muscles with no striations. They are spindle-shaped cells.
