a muscle fiber
A single muscle cell is called a muscle fiber.
A single contraction that lasts only a fraction of a second is called a muscle twitch. Its when the muscle seizes up for a quick pulse then relaxes.
it's called a prime mover
A: A Twitch
Another name is myocyte. It is formed from a myoblast. There are three types: smooth, striated and cardiac cells.
The response of a motor unit to a single action potential of its motor neuron is called a muscle twitch. This involves the contraction of all the muscle fibers within the motor unit in response to the stimulation from the motor neuron.
A muscle attached at only one end is called unipennate muscle. It has a single tendon and its muscle fibers run diagonally to the tendon.
muscle twitch
Skeletal muscle cells containing a single nucleus, called satellite cells, are believed to play a crucial role in muscle hypertrophy. These cells are involved in muscle repair and growth by contributing new nuclei to muscle fibers, aiding in protein synthesis, and increasing muscle mass in response to resistance training.
single unit smooth muscle
its Smooth muscle is an involuntary non-striated muscle, so-called because it has no sarcomeres and therefore no striations (bands or stripes). It is divided into two subgroups, single-unit and multiunit smooth muscle. Within single-unit muscle, the whole bundle or sheet of smooth muscle cells contracts as a syncytium. lol i know more than u
