What refers to one neurone and all the skeletal muscle cells it stimulates?
The motor unit.
What are the tissues in skeletal muscle?
Skeletal muscle is made up of individual components known as muscle fibers. These fibers are formed from the fusion of developmental myoblasts (a type of embryonic progenitor cell that gives rise to a muscle cell). The myofibers (muscle fiber) are long, cylindrical, multinucleated cells composed of actin and myosinmyofibrils repeated as a sarcomere, the basic functional unit of the cell and responsible for skeletal muscle's striated appearance and forming the basic machinery necessary for muscle contraction. The term muscle refers to multiple bundles of muscle fibers held together by connective tissue. Wikipedia dude ...
Position of muscles?
There are approximately 642 skeletal muscles within the typical human, and almost refers to the action of each muscle from the standard anatomical position.
Insertion of a skeletal muscle?
There are two ends of attachment of skeletal muscle. The "origin", and the "insertion". The "insertion" end refers to the end which is attached to a moveable bone which this muscle will move when it is contracted. The "origin" end is usually the most distal attachment (in appendicular skeleton) this is the bone that the muscle attaches to, and DOES NOT MOVE. Example. Biceps brachii. Origin- connection to the humeral head Insertion- radius/ulna summary- contract your biceps muscle, and your radius and ulna will move. not your shoulder. The end.
Is cardiac muscle mitotic?
It consists of a maximum of 2 nuclei per fiber so no it can't be considered multinucleated. Only skeletal is multinuke.
You control the movement of these muscles what are they?
Voluntary muscles vs involuntary muscles. Generally this refers to striated or skeletal muscles as opposed to the smooth muscle of the intestine or around blood vessels.
What the meaning of polynucleated?
Polynucleated (if the word really exists which I see no reason why it shouldnt) refers to a cell having the property of many nucleas's within it. An example of a polynucleated cell would be skeletal muscle as opposed to cardiac and smooth muscle which are uninucleates.
Reuptake refers to the?
reabsorption of excess neurotransmitter molecules by a sending neuron
What muscle tissue referred to as the muscular system?
Technically the muscular system refers to all three types of muscle tissues; skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. However, the cardiac and smooth muscles can be considered functional units of other systems as well. In the case of the cardiac muscle it would be the cardiovascular system and in the case of smooth muscle it would most likely be the digestive system. I say most likely because the largest amount of smooth muscle is associated with the digestive system and the gastrointestinal tract, but it is also a part of other systems and organs. Here a a few examples: muscular lining of arterioles in the cardiovascular system and the muscular lining of the urinary bladder in the excretory system.
What does skeletal sal trees refers to?
The skeletal sal tree is known as the Promise Sharma. This is saying that it gives us promises.
What term refers to the nerve cell body including all of its processes and coverings?
