Their different shapes help them to perform their various functions (jobs)
Stem cells (that may differentiate into any cell) turn into nerve and muscle cells. Once they differentiate to the different type of it cannot switch from one type of cell to another. So, in short, the answer is "no."
nerve.
The point where a nerve fiber connects to a muscle cell is known as the neuromuscular junction. This connection allows the nerve signal, or action potential, to be transmitted from the nerve to the muscle cell, triggering muscle contraction.
Neurotransmitters
Yes, there are many different cell types. The structure of the cell supports its function. Some different types of cells include squamous, columnar, smooth muscle, and nerve.
From the previous answerer: how does a muscle cell work? well it starts with a nerve cell and this moves on to make the muscle cell work it contracts and relaxes.wow, you must have a degree in microbiology. so it goes from the nerve to the cell and then it's just magic after that? i would say nice try, but it wasn't.
In order for a muscle to contract, the brain sends a nerve impulse to the muscle it wants to contract. The nerve impulse triggers the potassium inside the muscle fiber cell to switch places with the calcium outside the cell wall, thereby feeding the cell and contracting the muscle. A second nerve impulse from the brain triggers the calcium to switch places with the potassium, releasing the contracted muscle.
have the same information in their chromosomes
The axon terminals of a nerve cell and the sarcolemma of a skeletal muscle cell join at the neuromuscular junction. This is where the nerve impulse triggers the release of neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine, which initiate muscle contraction by binding to receptors on the sarcolemma.
The effector cell responds to a nerve impulse and can be either a muscle cell or a gland cell.
muscle cells and nerve cells is that muscle cells are responsible for the contraction and relaxation of muscles whereas nerve cells are responsible for the coordination of the functions of the body through the transmission of nerve impulses between the body and the central nervous system.
