What is the structure of striated muscle cells?
Striated muscle contracts and relaxes in short, intense bursts, whereas smooth muscle sustains longer or even near permanent contractions.
A skeletal muscle cell is also known as a?
A skeletal muscle is also known as a striated muscle. When viewed under polarized light or stained with an indicator, alternating stripes of light and dark are visible.
What is sacrolemma?
The sarcolemma is the cell membrane of a muscle fiber. It surrounds and protects the muscle fiber and controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell. The sarcolemma plays a crucial role in muscle contraction and the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle fiber.
What is the function of the smooth muscle cell?
I hate school
What is the function of an animal muscle cell in an organism?
the function is to make parts of the animal cell to move just like humans
What protein is in the sarcolemma?
A thin membrane enclosing a striated muscle fiber. Its the function of 'a cover' of a cell.
What muscle cell type is striated and involuntary?
Skeletal muscle is striated and voluntrary. Smooth muscle, as is found around the blood vessels and in many organs, is not striated and involuntary. The heart (cardiac muscle) is the only place you have striated involuntary muscle.
Is the Cardiac muscle appears striated and is completely voluntary?
cardiac muscle is striated cardiac muscle is not voluntary
Is cardiac muscle a striated muscle?
Cardiac muscle is striated because the only cardiac muscle in your body is your heart and your heart never stops working unless you die.
What muscle cell types have the following features striated and voluntary?
skeletal muscle
What type of tissue are biceps made from?
smooth muscle cell tissue
What is the function of troponin in muscle contractions?
It is involved in the regulation of the contraction of a cross-striated muscle.
What type of muscle is striated?
Striated muscle tissue is muscle tissue that has repeating tubular muscle cells. Striated muscles include skeletal striated muscle, embryotic branchiomeric muscle, and cardiac muscle.
Which muscle is also called striated striated muscle?
skelatal
Are skeletal muscles striated?
They are striated because striated means kind of stripey and the muscles has stripes of muscle itself.
What is the striated muscle connected to the bones?
Skeletal muscle tissue is striated muscle tissue connected to bones.
Is a skeletal muscle the same as a striated muscle?
Yes, skeletal muscles are voluntary, meaning they can be intentionally controlled. This distinguishes them from the cardiac muscle (heart) and smooth muscles, which are involuntary.
