Smooth muscles are found on the inner walls, while the skeletal muscles are joined to the bones.

Explanation:

  1. The smooth muscles are involuntary, non-striated muscles that can be found along the walls of hollow internal organs. They function in contraction of the internal organs.
  2. The skeletal muscles are voluntary, striated muscles attached to bone through tendons and to each other via aponeurosis.
