Iris of the eye. Airways to the lungs. Walls of the stomach, intestines, gallbladder, urinary bladder, and female uterus. 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. Consists of loosely arranged fibers that form a network between cells and contain; areolar, adipose, and reticular connective tissue present in the embryo through its development into a fetus Classified as either voluntary or involuntary Avascular with no blood vessels entering between cells present in the newborn through its development into adulthood and beyond Provides support, nourishment, and protection to many neurons that constitute the nervous system
