    by the nervous and endocrine systems Skeletal muscle tissue function of most is to move bones of the skeleton (are few that attach to other structures ex--the skin). Muscle tissue is striated b/c alternating light and dark protein bands (striations) are visible when tissue is closer examined. Muscle tissue action is voluntarily/activity can be controlled consciously. Cardiac muscle tissue found only in the heart—forms most of the heart wall. Muscle is striated (like skeletal)‚ and its action is
