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.

What is the parts of a cell which carry out tasks and help the cell work?

Organelles are the parts of a cell that carry out specific tasks and help the cell function properly. Examples of organelles include the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes. Each organelle has a specific function that contributes to the overall functioning of the cell.


Groups of simalar cells that do the same sort of work are?

A group of similar cells that do the same work is a tissue. So we have muscle tissue made from muscle cells.A group of tissues that work together is called an organ, so muscle tissue, nerve tissue and connective tissue all work together to make the heart. When we have a group of organs all working together for a particular function we have a system, so the heart, lungs, veins and arteries are all part of the circulatory system.


What determines the nature of cell's work?

The function of a cell is determined by its specific structure and the organelles it contains. Different types of cells have different functions and specializations, which are dictated by their genetic makeup and the signals they receive from their environment. The unique combination of proteins, enzymes, and other molecules within a cell enables it to perform its specific tasks, such as muscle contraction, hormone secretion, or nerve transmission.


What is a group of nerve cells called?

A group of nerve cells is called a "neuron" or "nerve cell cluster". These cells are fundamental units of the nervous system and work together to transmit electrical and chemical signals throughout the body.


How do muscle cells move?

the function of a muscle cell is, by definition, to move. this can be accomplished when the cell contracts. contracting makes it denser, which is why when you feel a relaxed muscle in your arm suddenly tense up, it hardens.A muscle cell expands and contracts in order to allow the human body to control the movement of it's limbs.

how do nerve cells and muscle cells work?

Nerve cells and muscle cells are excitable. Their cell membrane can produce electrochemical impulses and conduct them along the membrane. In muscle cells, this electric phenomenon is also associated with the contraction of the cell. Thank you, regards (me).


In a organism containing many cells how is the work of the cell performed?

The nerve cells transport signals and your muscle cells are specialized for movement.


What is a tissue give an example of a tissue?

Muscle cells work together to form a tissue. These cells are by definition tissues. Bone cells work together to form skeletal tissue.


What would happen if a nerve cell stopped working?

Your body would not function and you would be considered brain dead if none worked or if only one did not work the target that the nerve is going to would not work, for example a muscle or gland.


The same as a motor nerve?

A motor nerve is connected to a muscle or gland and causes it to work.


How do the different cells in an organism work?

Different cells in an organism have different jobs and functions to do. With all of them functioning properly, they can work together to perform more complex jobs like sustaining life. Cells that are similar to each other and do the same job are grouped together to form tissues. Muscle cells make muscle, nerve cells make nerve tissues and so on.

What is the work of nerve cell neuron?

Nerve cells are the basic functioning component in the nervous part of the system whether peripheral or central is comprised of neurons that collect and distribute information to make the body function.


Difference between voluntary and nonvoluntary muscles?

The only unvoluntary muscle is cardiac muscle. Heart is cardiac muscle. Unvoluntary muscle does not need nerve system in order to work. It works even if we are not in concious. Voluntary muscles need nerve system to move. The coordinating centre in our brain send nerve impulses to the muscles for various movement such as running and chewing. Instances of voluntary muscles are smooth muscle and skeletal muscle.


What is the difference between cell membrane and tissue?

The cell membrane is a thin, semi-permeable barrier that surrounds cells and controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell. Tissue, on the other hand, is a group of cells that work together to perform a specific function in an organism. Tissues can be made up of different types of cells, including those with specialized functions like muscle or nerve cells.
