2. What are the three types of muscle tissue and briefly describe each one
include the function of each type of muscle tissue.
The three types of muscle tissue are smooth, cardiac, and skeletal. Smooth
muscle tissue is found in the walls of our hollow visceral organs like our
stomach, airways, and blood vessels, and it involuntarily pushes fluid and other
material around by contracting and relaxing. Cardiac muscle tissue is found in
the heart and functions involuntarily to keep our blood pumping. Skeletal
muscle tissue is found in the muscles we can actually see, feel, and flex. These
are mostly voluntary, meaning we have to signal them to contract and this
usually causes a bodily movement.
4. Name two things that muscles do for you that were mentioned in the
video.
1. Muscles convert chemical energy into motion or movement.
2. Cardiac muscles pump our blood without us having to think about it.
