What else can I help you with?
Smooth muscle fibers are the shortest of all muscle cell types?
No. Cardiac muscle fibers.
What is a muscle cell called?
The scientific name for a muscle cell is a myocyte. Myocytes are also sometimes called muscle fibers. They are long, tube shaped, cells that develop from myoblasts.
What is muscle cell called?
fibers
What are the tissues in skeletal muscle?
Skeletal muscle is made up of individual components known as muscle fibers. These fibers are formed from the fusion of developmental myoblasts (a type of embryonic progenitor cell that gives rise to a muscle cell). The myofibers (muscle fiber) are long, cylindrical, multinucleated cells composed of actin and myosinmyofibrils repeated as a sarcomere, the basic functional unit of the cell and responsible for skeletal muscle's striated appearance and forming the basic machinery necessary for muscle contraction. The term muscle refers to multiple bundles of muscle fibers held together by connective tissue. Wikipedia dude ...
Individual muscle cells are called?
muscle fibre
How does the t-tubule structure contribute to the contraction of muscle fibers?
The t-tubule structure in muscle fibers helps transmit electrical signals deep into the cell, allowing for coordinated contraction of the muscle fibers.
Is a muscle cell a fiber?
Yes, biologists often refer to skeletal muscle cells as fibers, although they aren't the same as plant fibers.
A muscle cell is most correctly referred to as?
Muscle cells are most correctly referred to as muscle fibers.
What is the difference between endomysium and sarcolemma in muscle tissue structure?
The endomysium is a connective tissue layer that surrounds individual muscle fibers, while the sarcolemma is the cell membrane of a muscle fiber. The endomysium provides support and protection to the muscle fibers, while the sarcolemma controls the movement of substances in and out of the muscle cell.
What gives a cell its shape and is made of protein fibers?
cytoskeleton
How many sarcomere in a muscle cell?
There are unknown amounts of fibers (fibre) in muscles
What makes up muscle tissue?
Muscle tissue made up of elongated muscle fibers, fibers that contract in response to stimuli. Nervous Tissue is made up of neurons and neurological cells.
