What fibers carry information from the skin joints and skeletal muscles to the central nervous system?
parasympathetic
What is a group of skeletal muscle fibers?
A skeletal muscle
Is skeletal muscle made of muscle fibers?
Basically, yes. All muscle (skeletal, cardiac and smooth) are made of muscle fibers.
At what junction do nerves contact skeletal muscle fibers?
Motor neurons meet the muscle cells at neuromuscular junctions. Neurotransmitters are passed from the nerve across a synaptic cleft to the muscle to make it contract. Any damage to this nerve will mean that those cells will not contract (move).
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
What are skeletal muscle fibers enclosed in?
endomysium
Skeletal muscle fibers are encased in?
Endomysium
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.
True or false smooth muscle fibers are located in small skeletal muscles?
smooth muscle fibers are located in small skeletal muscle
Why are skeletal muscle fibers unusual?
The skeletal muscle, or striated muscle, is the muscle attached to the skeleton. Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibers known as tendons. The contraction of skeletal muscle is under voluntary control.
Do Skeletal muscle fibers tend to be shorter than smooth muscle fibers?
False
Do skeletal muscle fibers contain sarcomeres whereas smooth muscle fibers do not?
true
