Bones and Muscles Activity 2 and 3

Here are the key differences between the three main types of muscle: 1. Smooth muscle is found in organs like the stomach, intestines, arteries and veins. It controls involuntary functions like digestion and blood flow. 2. Cardiac muscle is only found in the heart. It contracts rhythmically and involuntarily to pump blood throughout the body. 3. Skeletal muscle is attached to bones and controls voluntary movement. It allows us to walk, pick things up and control facial expressions. The document provides examples of each type of muscle and their functions. Smooth muscle regulates involuntary processes like digestion. Cardiac muscle pumps blood from the heart. Skeletal muscle facilitates movement and maintains posture.

 Smooth muscle helps sperm to move along the
male reproductive tract.
 To prevent urination during ejaculation by men,

 The tunica dartos is a smooth muscle that
contracts or expands to regulate temperature of
the testicles.
 The smooth muscle in the uterus helps a woman
to push out her baby.
 Smooth muscle cells in the ovaries contract
when a woman ovulates.

 Cardiac muscle tissue works to keep your heart


pumping through involuntary movements. This is
one feature that differentiates it from skeletal
muscle tissue, which you can control.

 It does this through specialized cells called


pacemaker cells. These control the contractions
of your heart. Your nervous system sends

signals to pacemaker cells that prompt them to
either speed up or slow down your heart rate.

 Your pacemaker cells are connected to other


cardiac muscle cells, allowing them to pass
along signals. This results in a wave of
contractions of your cardiac muscle, which
creates your heartbeat.
