Answer:

Cardiac muscles are the muscles of the heart. They are made up of tissues which make up the walls of the heart. Smooth muscles can be described as a muscle type which are non-striated and are present on the inner linings of organs like reproductive organs, digestive organs, bladder etc.

Similarities between the cardiac and smooth muscles cells include:

  • Both make up involuntary muscles.
  • Both these muscles cells have a single or a double nucleus present in the centre.
  • The cardiac muscles cells are electrically linked to smooth muscle cells.
