What is the contractile tissue of the body?

There is no such thing. Were something non-contractile, it would cease to be called a muscle. You probably meant "What is a contractile muscle structure?" or something similar. There are many such answered questions on here.


What kind of tissue makes up organs that are able to contract?

Contractile tissue.


Which tissue type would you find contractile proteins?

muscle tissue

if the lesion is in a contractile tissue i.e muscle then active n passive movements are painful and/or restricted in opposite direction of motion.


Do intestines have muscular tissues?

What is the thick layer of the heart wall that contains contractile cardiac muscle tissue is the?

The thick layer of the heart wall that contains contractile cardiac muscle tissue is the myocardium. The layer of the heart wall synonymous with the visceral layer of the serous pericardium is epicardium.


Animal tissue consisting predominalty of contractile cells?

Animal tissue consisting predominantly of contractile cells is known as muscle tissue. These cells, called muscle fibers, have the ability to contract and generate force, allowing for movements in the body. Muscle tissue is categorized into three types: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth, each with its own unique features and functions.

What is non contractile tissue?

Non-contractile tissue refers to tissues within the body that do not have the ability to contract or generate mechanical force, such as bone, cartilage, and connective tissue. These tissues provide structural support, protection, and framework for the body, but they do not have the capacity for active movement or contraction like muscles do.


Animal tissue predominantly of contractile cells?

Muscle tissue is predominantly composed of contractile cells that allow for movement and force generation in the body. There are three types of muscle tissue: skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, and cardiac muscle, each with specific functions and characteristics. Muscle tissue is responsible for functions such as body movements, maintenance of posture, and generation of heat.


What structures make up a skeletal muscle?

A skeletal muscle is made up of muscle fibers (cells) bundled together in fascicles, which are then surrounded by connective tissue called perimysium. The entire muscle is enveloped in another layer of connective tissue called epimysium, and individual muscle fibers are composed of myofibrils, which contain the contractile proteins actin and myosin.
