Now, let's move on to our muscle tissue. The cells in our muscle tissue are basically responsible for generating the movement that our body is capable of making. For example, the reason I can bend my arm is a result of the muscle tissue that is found in my arm. Now, these cells have great contractile strain and they can also resist very high compressive as well as tensile forces. And there are three main types of muscle tissue. We have cardiac muscle tissue we have smooth as well as skeletal muscle tissue and we'll discuss this in more detail when we'll examine the muscle tissue as well as our skeletal tissue.
