What cells expand and contract to move the body.?
Muscle cells
Actin and myosin are what type of biological molecule?
Actin and myosin are proteins. They are responsible for muscle movement and a variety of movements of non muscle cells. For more information visit http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK9961/
Why do muscle cells have more mitochondria than skill cells?
Muscle cells require more energy for movement etc.
Do muscle cells work together to allow movement?
Muscle cells contract and relax in response to nerve impulses, causing movement. The human body has three types of muscle cells. Skeletal muscle cells control movement of bones, such as our arms and legs.
Tissue has elongated cells that shorten and cause movement?
Muscle tissue contracts or shortens, allowing movement.
Which type of cells are specialized for movement of the body?
Muscle cells are specialized for movement of the body. They have extra mitochondria so that they can utilize the energy necessary to contract muscles. A whole chain of muscle cells contracting will cause the muscle to "flex."
What cell helps the movement of bones?
Muscle cells.
What is a group of muscle cells called?
Muscle cells grouped together are called muscle tissue. The muscle cells contract and elongate to make the movement in the body parts. Muscle cells are found in several specialized forms such as Cardiac, skeletal or smooth muscles etc.Muscle cells grouped together are called muscle tissue.

Long thin cells in animals that can contract and cause movement?
muscle cells
Energy storage molecule found in liver and muscle cells?
Glycogen
What kind of cells in your body can contract?
Muscle cells contract, causing movement and our heartbeat.
What does the contraction of cells in muscle tissue allow muscles to do?
movement
