Another name is myocyte. It is formed from a myoblast. There are three types: smooth, striated and cardiac cells.

How do muscle cells use fat cells when they burn?
Muscle cells don't use fat cells when they are burned. An increase in muscle can raise the metabolism causing the muscle cells to burn off the fat cells in storage.
What are some differences between epithelial cells and muscle cells?
One difference between epithelial cells and muscle cells is their location in the human body. Epithelial cells are skin cells on the outside of the body. Muscle cells are located in the muscle under the skin.
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.

Which muscle cells commonly branch?
The muscle cells which commonly branch are the cardiac muscle cells. The other muscles do not have any branched cells.
Bone cells capable of breaking down bonds are termed?
osteoclasts
Do all types of muscle have endomysium covering individual muscle cells?
Yes. All types of muscle have endomysium covering individual muscle cells.
How are individual muscle cells different from the muscle tissue in the bicep?
Muscle cells are smaller than muscle tissues.
How are individual muscle cells different from the muscle tissue in the bicep muscle?
Muscle cells are smaller than muscle tissues.
Individual muscle cells are called?
muscle fibre
Can individual muscle cells pull in more than one direction?
No
What would happen if to muscle tissues individual muscles and the muscular system if muscle cells failed to function properly?
If muscle cells do not function properly, the muscle tissues do not function correctly and individual muscles will not operate properly. This will cause the muscular system to break down, which could lead to impaired movement and other defective processes.
How do muscle change?
skeletal muscle that do a lot of work become stronger and larger. Some of this change in muscle size is because of an increase in the number of muscle cells. But most of the change is because individual muscle cells become larger. Muscles that are not exercised become smaller and weaker
What can be found in every skeletal muscle?
Mycocytes, muscle cells sometimes called muscle fibers, are individual components that make up skeletal muscle cells. They are formed from the fusion of myoblasts known as myogenesis. They are long, cylindrical, multinucleate cells called myofibers. They are held together by connective tissue. The muscle is attached to tendons and bones,
What types of cells contracts to move an animal?
muscle cells...
Do smooth muscles have branched cells?
No, cardiac muscle cells are branched but skeletal muscle cells are linear and do not branch
What cell contains most mitochondria?
Muscle cells.Metabolically very active cells. Muscle cells,heart cells have lot of mitochondria
How do muscle cells use fat cells when they burn?
Muscle cells don't use fat cells when they are burned. An increase in muscle can raise the metabolism causing the muscle cells to burn off the fat cells in storage.
