Is cardiac muscle nourished by blood vessels?
Yes, cardiac muscle, like any other tissue of the body, is nourished by blood that is supplied by blood vessels.
Which type of muscle is the heart made of?
cardiac
What is the muscle tissue found in the heart?
Smooth cardiac muscle.
Muscle tissue that has intercalated disks?
cardiac muscle cells are joined by intercalated disks.
How do you describe the cardiac muscle?
Cardiac muscle is involuntary striated muscle. The cells of cardiac muscle have only one nucleus. The layer of the heart that contains cardiac muscle is called the myocardium.
What cells make up the myocardium?
Most of the myocardium is composed of cardiac myocytes.
Why does the myocardium receives it blood from coronary arteries and not from the cardiac chambers?
Myocardium is a type of muscle tissue. The reason why the myocardium receives its blood from coronary arteries and not from the cardiac chambers is because the blood from the cardiac chambers does not contain oxygen and nutrients.
Which tissue has intercalated discs?
cardiac muscles/involuntary muscle
Is the Cardiac muscle appears striated and is completely voluntary?
cardiac muscle is striated cardiac muscle is not voluntary
Where are intercalated disc found?
Cardiac muscle.
What type of muscle is found only in the walls of the heart?
Cardiac muscle forms the muscular wall of the heart. Cardiac muscle is involuntary muscle.
What are similarities between skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle?
