What are ligaments and tendons'?
Ligaments are strong bands of tissue that connect bone to bone. Tendons are tough connective tissues that connect skeletal muscles to bones.
What are the visible bands in cardiac and skeletal muscle called?
Visible bands in cardiac and skeletal muscle are called striated muscles.
How are bones attached to other bones?
Bones are attached to each other by ligaments, strong bands of tissue that may be flexible in some motions.(The similar tissues, tendons, connect the muscles to other muscles and to bones.)
Two muscular tissues that show light and dark bands?
Skeletal and cardiac muscle tissues are both considered as striated, which means that they have light and dark bands.
What do skeletal muscles do in the body?
Helps your body move and is made of:Ligaments: elastic bands that keep joints togetherTendons: Connect muscle to BoneJoints: Connects Bone to Bone
Is the skeletal system responsible for supporting the body?
Yes, it is the basic framework of the body.
Muscle that appears banded?
Muscle tissue whose cells have a banded appearance are classified as being striated. The two types of striated muscles tissue are the cardiac muscle tissue and the skeletal muscle tissue.
What do striations muscles look like?
Striations are light and dark bands on skeletal and caridac muscle fibers. Smooth muscle lacks striations
What type of muscles are striation found in?
The alternating A and I bands on the miofibrils.
How is cradiac similar to skeletal muscle?
Both types of muscles have striations in their cells for greater contraction. These striations are in the form of crossing and alternating light and dark bands.
Ligaments are strong bands of tissues that hold and support joints?
Strong ligaments (tough, elastic bands of connective tissue) surround the joint to give support and limit the joint's movement. Ligaments connect bones together. Tendons. Tendons (another type of tough connective tissue) on each side of a joint attach to muscles that control movement of the joint.
What are striated muscles marked with?
Striated muscle tissue is marked by transverse dark and light bands, which are made up of elongated fibers. These muscles include skeletal and usually cardiac muscle of vertebrates, and also most of the muscle of arthropods.
