What cells make up the myocardium?
Most of the myocardium is composed of cardiac myocytes.
What are the properties of cardiac cells?
Cardiac muscle is a striated, involuntary muscle. Cardiac muscle cells usually contain 1 or 2 nuclei.
What type of muscle would be considered autorhythmic?
Cardiac muscle
What type of tissue is cardiac tissue?
The heart is made mostly of cardiac muscle.
What arrangement of cardiac muscle fibers make the heart efficient?
The cardiac muscle is arranged spirally around the heart to make it more efficient.
How would you describe the cells of the cardiac muscle?
What is one of the most identifiable characteristics of cardiac tissue
Which of these characteristics best describes cardiac muscle tissue?
involuntary and striated
Which type of muscle is the heart made of?
cardiac
What characteristic does not describe cardiac muscle tissue?
Cardiac muscle tissue is specifically muscle tissue of the heart. It is smooth just like skeletal muscle tissue but has special characteristics that help it to contract at fast, steady rates.
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.
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.
