I do believe you are asking about a sarcomere, units of repeating bands that make up the fibers (myofibrils) of a striated muscle.

Units of actin and myosin are arranged end to end in order to?
form a muscle cell
What is the specific relationship of the functional unit of contraction to the striated appearance of a skeletal muscle fiber?
The organization of contractile proteins into a regular end-to-end repeating pattern of sacromeres along the length of each cell accounts for the striated, or striped, appearance of skeletal muscle in longitudinal section.
What is the function of a heart muscle cell?
the branching pattern increases the strenght of the muscle allowing it to pump blood to all cells in the body
What are facts about a skeletal muscle cell?
A skeletal muscle cell is a cell of a skeletal muscle.
What is a muscle cell?
A muscle cell is a cell which can change length
Is muscle a gamete cell?
No a muscle cell is a somatic cell
What cell have more mitochondria a muscle cell or egg cell?
muscle
Where are actin filaments found?
Actin and myosin are contractile proteins found within muscle fiber. If you look at a muscle fiber under a microscope it is made up of several repeating units called sarcomeres that run along the length of the muscle fiber. Proteins actin and myosin are found in the sarcomeres in different locations.
Is muscle a cell or an organ?
A muscle is neither a cell nor a organ, it is a muscle
What is a contractible unit of muscle?
Sarcomere
What cell of the human body has more mitchondria a muscle cell or skin cell?
