When a cell is not dividing chromosomes form long thin fibers?
It forms long thin fibers called chromatin
What is the cell body of the nerve cell?
An axon is the long extension of a nerve cell body. The dendrites are the short branches.
What are long fibers called?
Muscle cells are called fibers.
Organelle made of long microtubules to propel the cell?
basal body
What is a plants cell wall made of?
A plant's cell wall is mainly made up of cellulose.Celluloseis a polysaccharide, a polymer of glucose. It forms long fibers with significant spaces between. There are also hemicelluloses and pectin in the wall.
When a cell is not dividing chromosomes form long thin fibers?
It forms long thin fibers called chromatin
What is a muscle cell called?
The scientific name for a muscle cell is a myocyte. Myocytes are also sometimes called muscle fibers. They are long, tube shaped, cells that develop from myoblasts.
What is the long-branched thread extending from the neurons body in the nervous system?
dendrite
Muscles with fibers that run parallel to the long axis of the body?
Rectus
Complex carbohydrates such as what provide the body with long lasting energy?
startch and fibers
Which muscles with fibers run at an angle to the long axis of the body?
Fusiform.
What is the cell body of the nerve cell?
An axon is the long extension of a nerve cell body. The dendrites are the short branches.
Microscopic fiber that carries the nervous impulse along nerve cell?
Some nerve cells have fibers that grow out of the cell, which are called axons. Axons allow a nerve cell to connect to distant parts of the body, so that cells in the brain can send messages to, and receive messages from a toe, for example, which might be six feet away from the brain. Other nerve cells just connect to their immediate neighboring nerve cells, and therefore do not require axons; they instead have smaller extensions called dendrites.
What are the longest cells in the human body and how long are they?
The longest cells are neurons (nerve cells) linking the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to other parts of the body. For example, for every receptor cell in your feet, there is a sensory neuron extending from the foot to the base of the spine.
What are nerves composed of?
Nerves are composed of nerve cells; the long connecting parts of the nerve cells are called axons. The biochemistry of nerve cells is similar to that of other cells, but they do have an insulating layer, the myelin sheath, which gives them a relatively high concentration of fat.
What do skeletal muscles look like under a microscope?
Characteristically banded (sarcromeres) long cells with a lot of nuclei. The cell fibers also have a bunch of smaller cells around them, fibroblasts, which can fuse with the fibers if need be.
What is the long thin extension of the cell body of a neuron which is the conductor of nerve impulses?
An axon is the long extension of a nerve cell body. The dendrites are the short branches.
