There are main types of skeletal muscles , and each has its own job . muscles , like the brachii , are thicker in the middle and get thinner at the ends , which helps with movements like bending and . muscles , such as the , start wide and come at one point , kind of like a fan shape . muscles , like the rectus abdominis ( your abs ) , have fibers that run in the direction . muscles , like the oris around your , form rings that open and close things , but they ? re not very strong . muscles , like the rectus in your thigh , have fibers that angle out like a and are built for .

muscles are made up of different layers of tissue that help and organize them . The wraps the whole muscle , surrounds bundles of ( fascicles ) , and covers each individual fiber . These layers help muscles work with tendons to on bones . A broad tendon is called an . Muscles attach to bones at points ? the origin ( fixed ) and insertion ( moves ) . When muscles , the insertion moves the origin , like how the lifts your arm . Muscles also contain , blood vessels , and need from the nervous system to .

Skeletal muscle cells are called because they ? re and tube - shaped . They're pretty big compared to other cells ? some can be up to cm long . They form when many ( early muscle cells ) fuse together , which is why they have nuclei . This helps them make lots of needed for .

Cardiac muscle is found only in the . It's striated like skeletal muscle but has , branched cells with one nucleus . Cells connect through intercalated discs with gap junctions ( for fast signals ) and ( to hold cells together ) . cells control heart rate and fire on their own ( auto ) , spreading signals through junctions to make the as one unit ( syncytium ) . Cardiac muscle contracts longer than skeletal muscle due to a - driven plateau in the action potential , with calcium coming mostly from the cell .

Smooth muscle has no striations and is found in of organs ( like the bladder , stomach , and blood vessels ) , as well as the and skin . The fibers are spindle - shaped , have one nucleus , and are much than skeletal muscle fibers . Though they lack , they still use and myosin to . Thin filaments attach to dense bodies ( like Z - discs ) . Calcium for contraction comes from the and from outside the cell via ( membrane dips that bring in Ca² ? ) .
