Iris of the eye. Airways to the lungs. Walls of the stomach, intestines, gallbladder, urinary bladder, and female uterus. Classified as either voluntary or involuntary present in the embryo through its development into a fetus These muscles attached to bones to perform voluntary movement and maintenance of posture Majority of these tissues are found in the brain and spinal cord Avascular with no blood vessels entering between cells Contain cardiomyocytes. In cross-section, they tend to be less circular than skeletal muscle fibers. Cells are branched and tightly joined to each other by specialized junctions known as intercalated discs. Provides support, nourishment, and protection to many neurons that constitute the nervous system
