What was one unique characteristic about cardiac muscle that was different from both of the other types of muscle tissue?

Answer AND Explanation:

The cardiac muscles form the wall of the heart. The fibres are made up of many cells, which are joined end to end through intercalated discs. They have more mitochondria than skeletal and smooth muscles. Cardiac muscle is myogenic meaning that the rhythmical contraction originates from within.

blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium of the heart. as the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the heart through the pulmonic valve, into the pulmonary artery and to the lungs where it is oxygenated.
