What is the contractile tissue of the body?

There is no such thing. Were something non-contractile, it would cease to be called a muscle. You probably meant "What is a contractile muscle structure?" or something similar. There are many such answered questions on here.


Which tissue type would you find contractile proteins?

muscle tissue


Animal tissue predominantly of contractile cells?

Muscle tissue is predominantly composed of contractile cells that allow for movement and force generation in the body. There are three types of muscle tissue: skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, and cardiac muscle, each with specific functions and characteristics. Muscle tissue is responsible for functions such as body movements, maintenance of posture, and generation of heat.

The main type of cell found in muscle tissue in your arm is the muscle cell, also known as a muscle fiber. These cells contain contractile proteins that allow for movement and contraction of the muscle.


When viewed under a microscope a sample of tissue reveals striations and long thin fibers that contain many nuclei and mitochondria. What type of tissue is most likely being viewed?

The tissue most likely being viewed is skeletal muscle tissue. Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of long and thin fibers called muscle fibers that exhibit striations due to the arrangement of contractile proteins. These muscle fibers contain multiple nuclei and mitochondria to support their high energy demands.


What type of tissue is associated with movement?

Muscle tissue is associated with movement in the body. It is made up of contractile cells that allow for voluntary and involuntary movements.
