striated muscle
Striated muscle refers to a type of muscle tissue that has repeating functional units, giving it a striped or striated appearance. This term usually describes two types of muscles: skeletal and cardiac muscle. It is marked by transverse dark and light bands due to light-scattering properties of the overlapping contractile proteins, actin and myosin. These muscles are responsible for voluntary movements (in case of skeletal muscle) and the contraction of the heart ( in the case of cardiac muscle).
