What is the size of a muscle cell in a animal cell?

Muscle cells are actually a type of animal cell and thus aren't an organelle. If you were wondering how large a muscle cell is, a muscle cell is about as big as a general animal cell, but are a little larger. I hope this helps you.


The shape and size of cell vary according to the function it has to perform justify the statement taking muscle cell as example?

Muscle cells are elongated in shape to allow for efficient contraction and force generation. Additionally, the size of the muscle cell is large to accommodate a substantial number of muscle proteins and energy stores needed for muscle function. These adaptations in shape and size enhance the muscle cell's ability to contract rapidly and powerfully.


How does the process of muscle cell mitosis contribute to the growth and repair of muscle tissue?

During muscle cell mitosis, a single muscle cell divides into two identical daughter cells. This process helps in the growth and repair of muscle tissue by increasing the number of muscle cells, which allows for the muscle to grow in size and repair damaged muscle fibers.

How can the shape of muscle cell change?

Muscle cells can change shape through processes such as hypertrophy (increase in size) or atrophy (decrease in size). Hypertrophy occurs when the muscle cell grows in response to increased workload, such as through exercise. Atrophy, on the other hand, can be caused by disuse, injury, or disease which results in a reduction in the size of the muscle cell.
