What else can I help you with?
What is the preferred source of energy for the heart muscle?
The preferred source of energy for the heart muscle is fatty acids. Fatty acids are "good fats" that are main sources of energy for cells.
What role does the heart play in exercise?
the role of the heart is to supply the working muscle with oxygen and energy
What numerous in heart muscle cells becaue of need for energy?
vacuoles
What is the numerous in heart muscle cells because of need for energy?
Mitochondria
What is the power source of the heart?
The heart's main power source is a network of blood vessels called the coronary arteries, which supply oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle. This allows the heart to pump continuously without getting tired.
What organelle is numerous in the heart muscle cell?
The organelle that is numerous in heart muscle cells is the mitochondrion. Heart muscle cells require a significant amount of energy to sustain continuous contractions, and mitochondria are responsible for producing ATP through aerobic respiration. The high density of mitochondria in these cells allows for efficient energy production to meet the demands of the heart. Additionally, they have a unique structure that supports their role in energy metabolism.
Is olive oil a quick source of energy?
No, but it is a heart-healthy fat.
Which organelle would you expect to be the most highly concentrated in heart muscle cells?
Mitochondria as the heart requires a lot of energy.
What does heart muscle mean?
Your heart is a muscle. It is also called the myocardium. The muscle cells in the heart muscle are called myocardiocytes.
Why is oxygen so critical to heart muscle?
Oxygen plays many roles in the metabolic pathways that support contracture of the heart's cardiac muscle tissue. The heart muscle is the only muscle in the body which is always working. It cannot stop and rest, because the body requires a constant circulation of blood, to supply the tissues of the body with oxygen and nutrients. The brain can only survive for 3 minutes without oxygen. So since the heart must constantly work, it requires a constant supply of oxygenated blood. Without it, the heart would not have the energy it requires to do its work, and would stop.
What type of muscle is the heart made off?
the heart is made out of a special type of muscle called cardiac muscle
What kind of muscle the heart?
The heart is a cardiac muscle
