Which of the three muscle cell types has multiple nuclei? cardiac smooth skeletal

Which tissue type is formed by many cells joining together, which are multinucleated? skeletal muscle smooth muscle dense regular cardiac muscle

Skeletal muscle

Using your hospital's information portal, your patient reviews the report from her recent biopsy, which includes a reference to "smooth muscle." She asks you if this means her muscles are abnormal. What is the best explanation is? Smooth muscle tissue is called smooth because it moves blood and digestive secretions smoothly through the blood vessels and digestive tract. Smooth muscle tissue controls many involuntary functions. Unlike the muscles that control voluntary movement and the heart, it has no "stripes" or striations and so is "smooth." Smooth muscle tissue controls involuntary movements, including the pumping of the heart. Smooth muscle tissue is found in abundance in athletes and dancers, allowing them to move more smoothly than the average person.
