What is a tissue give an example of a tissue?
Muscle cells work together to form a tissue. These cells are by definition tissues. Bone cells work together to form skeletal tissue.
A group of conducting cells control heart muscle contraction and is known as the?
pacemaker cells
Are muscle tissues composed of cells?
yes it is made up of a group of smells! :P
Which is the most likely function of a group of cells that contain a high number of mitochondria?
Which is the most likely function of a group of cells that contains a high number of mitochondrian
What is the small group of cells that animal plant and fungi are in?
These cells are called eukaryotes, and contain a nucleus and organellles, as opposed to the prokaryotic cells of the monera (bacteria) and blue-green algae which do not have a distinct nucleus.
Each heart contraction begins in a small group of cardiac muscle cells called?
The sinoatrial node is the small group of cardiac muscles that initiates each heart contraction.
What level of organization is the cardiac muscle?
Cardiac muscle is a tissue. It's a group of cells working together for a common function.
What is the function of the peacemaker?
a small group of cardiac muscle cells that "set the pace" for the heart as a whole and they begin each contractions.
What is a mass of interconnected cardiac muscle cells that act together as a group?
functional syncytium
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.

What is cardiac tissue made up of?
Cardiac tissue is made of cardiac muscle cells and a small amount of connective tissue. The cells that make this tissue are called cardiocytes. They have the special ability to "beat" on their own with no nerve stimulation. If one touches another beating cell, they will begin to beat together. In the heart some group will form a pacemaker to provide a rhythm for the organ.
What is a muscle in the cardiac group?
The heart is a muscle. this is why your heart pumps faster when you excercise your muscles. =]
What is distinctive about cardiac muscle?
Unique anatomical feature of the Heart muscle is the presence of intercalated discs. They hold the heart cells together and allow the conduction of impulses between the cells. Also cells have a high quantity of mitochondria, for the provision of energy.
What is a tissue give an example of a tissue?
Muscle cells work together to form a tissue. These cells are by definition tissues. Bone cells work together to form skeletal tissue.
Are capillaries muscles?
No. A capillary is a small tube carrying blood, a muscle is a group of cells that can contract, generally in order to move something.
A group of conducting cells control heart muscle contraction and is known as the?
pacemaker cells
What do a group of similar cells such as muscle cells work in?
This is called tissue, which makes organs.
