Question

Abe knew from his anatomy class that there are three different kinds of muscle tissue in the body. He knew lifting weights would help build the skeletal muscle and that running was good for cardiac muscle health. He was surprised to find out that his blood vessels had smooth muscle, so his exercise regimen was actually benefitting all the muscle types of his body. Correctly sort each of the characteristics into the appropriate category.
