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.
What is the role of the spindle fibers?
Spindle-shaped muscle fibers are skeletal muscles that produce external mobility to the body.
Which grouping consists of connecting fibers that enable the cell function as a unit?
Cytoskeleton consists of connecting fibers that enable the cell to function as a unit.
What travels from your brain to your skeletal muscle cells when you move?
When you decide to move, an electrical signal called an action potential is generated in your brain. This signal travels along your neurons and reaches the skeletal muscle cells via motor neurons. At the neuromuscular junction, a chemical called acetylcholine is released, which stimulates the muscle fibers to contract and initiate movement.
Does glycerinated skeletal muscle fibers need calcium in order to contract?
false
What do somatic nerve fibers innervate?
I believe the answer is skeletal muscles.
What are the fibers that carry information from the skin joints and skeletal muscles to the nervous system?
Somatic nerves from the somatic nervous system
Bone that consists of hardened fibers interspersed with many spaces?
Spongy bone provides lightweight support. Consists of hardened fibers interspersed with many spaces. Skeletal system made of calcium hardened collagen fibers that make it strong but flexible.
What is a group of skeletal muscle fibers?
A skeletal muscle
What neurotransmitter control the somatic nervous system and how does it work?
Acetylcholine (ACh) is the only neurotransmitter used in the motor division of the somatic nervous system. It works by binding to acetylcholine receptors on skeletal muscle fibers and opening ligand-gated sodium channels in the cell membrane.

Acetylcholine (ACh) is the only neurotransmitter used in the motor division of the somatic nervous system. It works by binding to acetylcholine receptors on skeletal muscle fibers and opening ligand-gated sodium channels in the cell membrane.
Is skeletal muscle made of muscle fibers?
Basically, yes. All muscle (skeletal, cardiac and smooth) are made of muscle fibers.
What motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates called?
the motor unit
Skeletal muscle fibers are encased in?
Endomysium
What are skeletal muscle fibers enclosed in?
endomysium
Network that stimulates the myocardium into contraction?
His bundle? or the Purkinje fibers?
The delicate connective tisssue that surrounds the skeletal muscle fibers and ties adjacent muscle fibers together is the?
The delicate connective tissue that surrounds the skeletal muscle fibers and ties adjacent muscle fibers together is the endomysium.
