Answer» Striated muscles is also known as striped or voluntary muscles because of their function being in our control or will. This type of muscular tissue cells are very long fibres, enclosed in a membrane known as sarcolemma. The cells (fibre) are multi-nucleated. Each fibre has several longitudinal myofibrils embedded in cytoplasm. On these myofibrils are present characteristic light and dark bands which give it a striated appearance. These muscles are attached to the skeleton; so are also called skeletal muscles.
