Fast muscle fibers have the greater metabolic activity and have the higher concentration of catalase enzyme.

What contains the highest concentration of thiamin in muscle tissue?

The highest concentration of thiamin in muscle tissue is found in the perimysium, a connective tissue that surrounds bundles of muscle fibers. The perimysium contains a higher concentration of thiamin compared to the muscle fibers themselves.


What type of muscle fibers are found in higher proportion in weight lifters?

Type II (fast-twitch) muscle fibers are found in higher proportion in weight lifters. These fibers generate more force and are associated with explosive movements and short bursts of intense activity.


What type of muscle fibers are there?

You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.

Why do slow twitch muscle fibers have more mitochondria compared to fast twitch muscle fibers?

Slow twitch muscle fibers have more mitochondria compared to fast twitch muscle fibers because they rely more on aerobic metabolism for energy production, which requires a higher number of mitochondria to generate ATP efficiently.

Does increased muscle density mean more myofibrils per muscle fiber?

Yes, it means that you will gain more myofibrils per muscle fiber. A muscle fiber is a muscle cell, and everybody has about the same number. When you train your muscles, they will develop more myofibrils inside the muscle cells. So you cannot change the number of muscle fibers, or cells, but you can change the number of fibers, or myofibrils, inside them. The end result is more muscle density, not more muscle cells.


Smooth muscle fibers are the shortest of all muscle cell types?

No. Cardiac muscle fibers.


What type of muscle fibers used in strength training?

imcomplitory muscle fibers


What is muscle fibers?

Your cardiac muscle is your heart and this is a muscle and it holds itself together with its fibers. Hope that answers it for you :)


Does muscle fibers brake down during exercise?

Yes. Strenuous exercise can kill the muscle fibers. Such muscle fibers are replaced by fibrous tissue.


Does some tissue contain more catalyze than other?

Yes, different tissues contain varying amounts of catalase enzyme depending on their metabolic activities and oxygen exposure. For example, liver tissue typically has a high concentration of catalase due to its role in detoxifying harmful substances, whereas muscle tissue may have lower levels of catalase because it has lower oxidative processes.
