S2: Visceral muscles are characterized by a smooth appearance, lacking striations, and function involuntarily in hollow internal organs. S3: Cardiac muscle cells are typically unbranched, but like skeletal muscles, their activities are directly controlled by the central nervous system. S4: Each muscle fibre of skeletal muscle is described as a syncytium due to the presence of multiple nuclei within its sarcoplasm. S5: Cardiac muscles exhibit striations and a branching pattern, yet they are involuntary in nature.
