This is called a motor unit.
skeletal muscles or voluntary muscles
Also known as stripped muscles. These are the skeletal muscles.
Neurons communicate through electrochemical signals, known as action potentials, that allow them to relay information to other neurons. When a neuron stimulates another neuron, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters that can excite or inhibit the activity of the receiving neuron, influencing its firing potential. This communication is key in coordinating various functions in the brain and nervous system.
The skeletal muscle is the only type of muscle which is voluntary.
skeletal muscles are defined as attached to the bones of the skeleton and make body movement possible. they are also known as striated muscles and they are voluntary muscles, meaning you can control any movement.
Each muscle cell is only innervated by a single motor neuron, but each motor neuron innervates any number of muscle cells. When an action potential travels down the axon of an alpha motor neuron, it will depolarize several muscle cells at the same time, a phenomenon known as summation.
Skeletal muscle tissue.
Muscle cells are known as myocytes.
Skeletal muscles are the muscles that move bones. They are also known as voluntary muscles because you can consciously control them
No, smooth muscles are involuntary muscles. We can't control smooth muscles by our will. Only striated muscles (also known as skeletal muscles) can be controlled by will.
Yes, skeletal muscles are also known as striated muscles due to the alternating light and dark bands (striations) that are visible under a microscope. This striated appearance is caused by the arrangement of the protein filaments within the muscle fibers.
No. Unlike skeletal muscles, the liver contains an enzyme known as glucose 6-phosphatase that can remove the phosphate groups and produce free glucose.
