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.

What does the contraction of cells in muscle tissue allow muscles to do?
movement
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 type of muscles contain spindle shaped cells?
Skeletal muscle tissue has cylindrical cells. Due to the cells in the skeletal muscle, the muscle can now allow movement to the bones in the body.
What is the difference between plant cells and animal cells that give animal cells the ability to move?
Animals have different forms of specialization that allow them to have muscle cells and other cells that aid movement.

What cells expand and contract to move the body.?
Muscle cells
Which tissue allow the body to move by stretching and contracting?
The type of tissue that allows or produces movement is muscle tissue.
Why do muscle cells have more mitochondria than skill cells?
Muscle cells require more energy for movement etc.
What are the muscular cells?
Smooth (organs)Cardiac (heart muscle)Skeletal (movement, support, strength)Muscle cells have a nucleus just like other cells. The basic units of a muscle cell are the actin and myosin filaments that slide past each other to allow flexion and extension of your joints.
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 molecule is utilized by muscle cells for movement?
actin myosin and cell movement
