Being multinucleated enables anything to synthesize more protein. Also we know that skeletal muscle fibres are much longer than that of any other muscle fibre, so it needs a huge amount of actin and myosin protein to bring about required contraction of a muscle, as actin and myosin crossbridge is required for muscle contraction. Thus it can be postulated that this boon of being multinucleated is essential for a skeletal muscle to posses adequate amounts of actin and myosin for muscle contraction.

Check out Wiki for: Myogenesis- during development, groups of embryonic cells fuse together to form a single muscle fiber. Janairo Hernandez

What is the syncytial arrangement of cardiac muscle fibers?
only skeletal muscle has a syncytial arrangement becausesyncytial means multinucleated and only skeletal muscle is multinucleated.
What muscle tissue is multinucleated?
skeletal muscles
What is the definition of a Skeletal muscle cell?
A skeletal muscle cell is a type of cell that is long, cylindrical, and striated in appearance. These cells are responsible for voluntary movement and are attached to bones by tendons. Skeletal muscle cells contract to generate force and movement in the body.
Which type of muscle is multinucleated striated and in cylinder form?
Skeletal muscle.
What type of tissue is multinucleated?
Skeletal muscle tissue.
What is a group of skeletal muscle fibers?
A skeletal muscle
The only type of muscle with multinucleated fibers is?
Steven Hawking has no muscles.
Why are skeletal muscle cells multinucleated?
The number of cells depends on how large the muscle is; muscles consist of fiber bundles, which are made up of myofibrils. A sarcomere is one of the segments that the myofibril is divided into. In each fiber bundle there are multinucleate cells, which can extend the length of the skeletal muscle. So, the number of cells in a skeletal muscle depends on the size of the muscle. for example, the number of cells in one of our triceps larger than one of the small muscles in a finger.
Is skeletal muscle made of muscle fibers?
Basically, yes. All muscle (skeletal, cardiac and smooth) are made of muscle fibers.
What are the tissues in skeletal muscle?
Skeletal muscle is made up of individual components known as muscle fibers. These fibers are formed from the fusion of developmental myoblasts (a type of embryonic progenitor cell that gives rise to a muscle cell). The myofibers (muscle fiber) are long, cylindrical, multinucleated cells composed of actin and myosinmyofibrils repeated as a sarcomere, the basic functional unit of the cell and responsible for skeletal muscle's striated appearance and forming the basic machinery necessary for muscle contraction. The term muscle refers to multiple bundles of muscle fibers held together by connective tissue. Wikipedia dude ...
Do multinucleated cells in human body exist execept skeletal muscle?
Yeah. Osteoclasts are multinucleated and they work in bone resorption. Hepatocytes and some WBC (neutrophils and eosinophils) are also multinucleated.
What type of muscle fibers are there?
You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.
