Draw well labelled diagrams of various types of muscles found in human body.
The three main types of muscular tissues found in human body are :
(i) Skeletal (striated) muscle tissue
(ii) Smooth (Non striated) muscle tissue
(iii) Cardiac muscle tissue.
The well labelled diagrams of these tissues are as follows:
