Yes it does!

When our diet contains too few proteins and calories, the contractile proteins in skeletal muscles are broken down, and their amino acids released into the circulation. The liver can use some of these amino acids to synthesize glucose, and others can be broken down to provide energy.

Cardiac muscle cells are like skeletal muscle cells in that?

Cardiac muscle cells are similar because they have striations which are strands of actin and myosin filaments. They also have mitochondria, transverse tubules, and sarcoplasmic reticulum.Cardiac muscle is different from skeletal muscle in that the muscle is branching, with intercalated dicks at the ends of them, store less calcium, the transverse tubules are larger, and their twitches are longer. Also, the entire cardiac muscle contracts as a whole, regulates itself, and is rhythmic.


Where do we have a small store of glycogen?

Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles in the human body. The liver typically stores about 100g of glycogen, while the muscles can store varying amounts depending on muscle mass and exercise level.

No, they store starch reserves in their roots


Skeletal muscle fibers differ from typical cells in that these muscle fibers?

contain multiple nuclei and are elongated, allowing for contraction and relaxation to generate movement in the body. They also have a striated appearance due to the arrangement of myofilaments within the cell, which aids in the sliding filament mechanism of muscle contraction.

What substance in muscle seems able to store oxygen temporarily?

Myoglobin is synthesized in cells and imparts the reddish-brown color of skeletal muscle tissue. Like hemoglobin, myoglobin can combine loosely with oxygen. This ability to temporarily store oxygen reduces a muscle's requirement for a continuous blood supply during muscular contraction.
