Yes. Skeletal muscle tissue, just like any other living tissue is made up of millions of cells. Each cell contains a nucleus.

What is the role of nuclei in cardiac muscle function?

The nuclei in cardiac muscle cells play a crucial role in regulating the cell's functions, such as protein synthesis and gene expression. They help maintain the cell's structure and function, allowing the heart to contract and pump blood effectively.


What are the key differences in the structure and function between skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle?

Skeletal muscle is attached to bones and helps with movement, while cardiac muscle is found in the heart and helps pump blood. Skeletal muscle is under voluntary control, while cardiac muscle is involuntary. Additionally, skeletal muscle has multiple nuclei per cell, while cardiac muscle has only one nucleus per cell.


What are the key differences in the structure and function between smooth muscle and cardiac muscle?

Smooth muscle is found in the walls of internal organs and blood vessels, while cardiac muscle is found in the heart. Smooth muscle is involuntary and under autonomic control, while cardiac muscle is also involuntary but has its own specialized conduction system. Smooth muscle cells are spindle-shaped and have a single nucleus, while cardiac muscle cells are branched and have one or two nuclei. Smooth muscle contracts slowly and rhythmically, while cardiac muscle contracts quickly and continuously.


Which tissue has intercalated discs?

Cardiac muscle tissue has intercalated discs, which are specialized structures that help with communication and coordination of muscle contractions in the heart.


How do skeletal and cardiac muscles differ?

cardiac is uni/binucleate, has intercalated discs, and is has branching fibers, skeletal is multinucleate and is long and cylindrically shaped.Skeletal muscle is found in the arms and legs and also other parts of your body. For skeletal muscle to contract it needs to be independly stimulated by a nerve ending. Cardiac muscle is a involantry muscle within the heart which automaticly contracts because of its self- excitable cells. It is a muscle which does NOT produce lactic acide ( normally) and it does not need a nerve to stimulate it to contract

How many nucleus does smooth muscle have?

smooth muscles and cardiac muscles contain a single, centrally located nuclei, where as skeletal muscle cells are very large and contain many nuclei.


How many nuclei in each cardiac muscle fiber?

There is typically only one nucleus in each cardiac muscle fiber. Cardiac muscle cells are uninucleated, meaning they contain a single nucleus. This nucleus plays a vital role in controlling protein synthesis and cell function within the muscle fiber.


Do cardiac muscle have nuclei?

They only have one or two nuclei

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.
