What type of muscle fibers are there?
You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.
What is the function of the muscle fibers?
muscle fibers contract the muscles when stimulated.
Does a nerve provided impulses for many muscle fibers or just few?
A nerve can stimulate impulses to several muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are grouped they form a single muscle group like the biceps.
What are long fibers called?
Muscle cells are called fibers.
How are muscle fibers arranged to form a muscle?
Muscle fibers can be arranged into two basic structural patterns, fusiform and pinnate. Most human muscles are fusiform, with the fibers largely arranged parallel along the muscle's longitudinal axis. In many of the larger muscles the fibers are inserted obliquely into the tendon, and this arrangement resembles a feather. The fibers in a pinnate (feather) muscle are shorter than those of a fusiform muscle. The arrangement of pinnate muscle fibers can be single or double, as in muscles of the forearm, or multipinnate, as in the gluteus maximus or deltoid.
Does slow muscle fibers or fast muscle fibers have a higher catalase concentration?
Fast muscle fibers have the greater metabolic activity and have the higher concentration of catalase enzyme.

Smooth muscle fibers are the shortest of all muscle cell types?
No. Cardiac muscle fibers.
What type of muscle fibers used in strength training?
imcomplitory muscle fibers
Does muscle fibers brake down during exercise?
Yes. Strenuous exercise can kill the muscle fibers. Such muscle fibers are replaced by fibrous tissue.
What is muscle fibers?
Your cardiac muscle is your heart and this is a muscle and it holds itself together with its fibers. Hope that answers it for you :)
The delicate connective tisssue that surrounds the skeletal muscle fibers and ties adjacent muscle fibers together is the?
The delicate connective tissue that surrounds the skeletal muscle fibers and ties adjacent muscle fibers together is the endomysium.
Is skeletal muscle made of muscle fibers?
Basically, yes. All muscle (skeletal, cardiac and smooth) are made of muscle fibers.
What is cardiac muscle fibers?
Your cardiac muscle is your heart and this is a muscle and it holds itself together with its fibers. Hope that answers it for you :)
