Microscopic anatomy: skeletal muscle is made up of long, cylindrical striated cells with multiple nuclei; cardiac muscles are uninucleated, striated, and branch out; smooth muscle lacks striations and has uninucleated cells.
Body location: skeletal muscles are attached to bones or skin; cardiac muscle is located in the walls of the heart; smooth muscle is found in hollow visceral organs.
Functions in body: skeletal muscle is voluntary and is responsible for most visible human body movement, e.g. movement of limbs; cardiac muscle is involuntary and regulates pulse and pumps blood; smooth muscle is involuntary and functions in conjunction with the nervous system and hormone and chemical production.
The arrangement of fascicles in skeletal muscle helps in generating strong and coordinated muscle contractions. The parallel arrangement of fascicles allows for efficient force production and transmission, leading to better overall muscle function and movement.
only skeletal muscle has a syncytial arrangement becausesyncytial means multinucleated and only skeletal muscle is multinucleated.
myofilaments
The arrangement of actin and myosin
Yes.
A fascicle is a bundle of muscle fibers within a skeletal muscle. These fascicles are surrounded by connective tissue called perimysium. The arrangement of fascicles within a muscle contributes to its overall structure and function, allowing for coordinated movement and strength.
Muscle cells can be classified based on their structure as either skeletal, smooth, or cardiac muscle cells. These types of muscle cells differ in their appearance and function. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and help with voluntary movements, smooth muscles are found in the walls of organs and blood vessels, and cardiac muscles are unique to the heart.
No!
SKULL: protect the brain
The main function of the skeletal system is to provide structure and support for the body, while the main function of the muscular system is to allow movement and mobility.
