The diagrammatic view of Cardiac muscle which is a striated, and branched muscle fibre.
Difference between Smooth muscle and Striated muscle :-
Difference between Smooth muscle and Striated muscle :-
SMOOTH MUSCLE | STRIATED MUSCLE |
Cells are unbranched. | Here cells are branched. |
These are involuntary muscles. | These are voluntary muscles. |
