Do multinucleated cells in human body exist execept skeletal muscle?
Lpooju
Yeah. Osteoclasts are multinucleated and they work in bone resorption.
Hepatocytes and some WBC (neutrophils and eosinophils) are also multinucleated.

What kind of muscle contains cylindrical cells with branching ends?
Skeletal muscle tissueVoluntary or skeletal muscles contains long non branching cylindrical cells.
What cells have fibers that can contract and relax?
Muscle fibres are a type of cell. They are found in bundles in muscles, surrounded by connective tissue, neurones and capillaries. Muscle fibres are long, multinucleated cells with a high tensile strength.
What must the heart do when muscle cells are oxygen deprived?
continue aerobic metabolism when skeletal muscle cannotcontinue aerobic metabolism when the skeletal muscle cannot
What is a group of muscle cells called?
Muscle cells grouped together are called muscle tissue. The muscle cells contract and elongate to make the movement in the body parts. Muscle cells are found in several specialized forms such as Cardiac, skeletal or smooth muscles etc.Muscle cells grouped together are called muscle tissue.

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.
Which type of muscle is multinucleated striated and in cylinder form?
Skeletal muscle.
What is an example of a multinucleated organism?
Skeletal muscle cells and osteoclasts are multinucleated. Multinucleated cells can also be seen in the presence of some diseases, such as tuberculosis, but these cells are abnormal and usually die.
Why are skeletal muscle cells multinucleated?
The number of cells depends on how large the muscle is; muscles consist of fiber bundles, which are made up of myofibrils. A sarcomere is one of the segments that the myofibril is divided into. In each fiber bundle there are multinucleate cells, which can extend the length of the skeletal muscle. So, the number of cells in a skeletal muscle depends on the size of the muscle. for example, the number of cells in one of our triceps larger than one of the small muscles in a finger.
What is the definition of a Skeletal muscle cell?
A skeletal muscle cell is a type of cell that is long, cylindrical, and striated in appearance. These cells are responsible for voluntary movement and are attached to bones by tendons. Skeletal muscle cells contract to generate force and movement in the body.
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.
Do skeletal muscle cells have glycosomes?
Yes, skeletal muscle cells have glycosomes and myoglobin in their sarcoplasm.
Is smooth muscle cells voluntary?
no, skeletal muscle cells are
Do skeletal muscle cells have one nucleus?
skeletal muscle cells have multiple nuclei in each cell.
How do skeletal muscle fibers become multinucleated?
Being multinucleated enables anything to synthesize more protein. Also we know that skeletal muscle fibres are much longer than that of any other muscle fibre, so it needs a huge amount of actin and myosin protein to bring about required contraction of a muscle, as actin and myosin crossbridge is required for muscle contraction. Thus it can be postulated that this boon of being multinucleated is essential for a skeletal muscle to posses adequate amounts of actin and myosin for muscle contraction.

How are smooth muscle cells similar to skeletal fibers?
Smooth muscle cells are similar to skeletal muscle cells due to the actin-tropomyosin interactions. These interactions "tell" the muscle when to contract.
What tissue has one nucleus?
Smooth muscle tissue has a single nucleus in each cell :)
What kind of muscle contains cylindrical cells with branching ends?
Skeletal muscle tissueVoluntary or skeletal muscles contains long non branching cylindrical cells.
