What else can I help you with?
What type of muscles work without your control?
cardiac muscles
What can cardiac muscle do that no other muscle can do?
Cardiac muscles can work without fatigue.
How does a muscle contract according to the sliding-filament model of muscles contraction?
When skeletal (or cardiac) muscle contracts, the thin and thick filaments in each sarcomereslide along each other without their shortening, thickening, or folding.
Are cardiac muscles attached to the bones?
No. Cardiac muscles are attached to the pericardium - a layer of tissue that surrounds the heart and the Great Vessels. The sac rests on the diaphragm and is connected by various bits of connective tissue to the thoracic cavity.
Is the cardiac muscle voluntary?
No because the heart is a cardiac muscle and you cant' control the heart
Is a heart a cardiac muscle?
Unlike other types of muscle, cardiac muscle never gets tired. It works automatically and constantly without ever pausing to rest. Cardiac muscle contracts to squeeze blood out of your heart, and relaxes to fill your heart with blood. Unlike skeletal muscle tissue, its contraction is usually not under conscious control
Why cardiac arrest follows to respiratory arrest?
Without getting into it. The heart is just a muscle and muscles can't work without oxygen.
Muscles move without conscious control?
Muscles that move without conscious control are called involuntary muscles. Examples include smooth muscles in organs like the stomach and blood vessels, and cardiac muscle in the heart. These muscles are controlled by the autonomic nervous system and work automatically to carry out vital functions in the body.
What is the purpose of the muscle system?
Muscles allow the body to move. There is your basic answer. To give more information, you have three types of muscles. They are skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles. Your skeletal muscles are attached to your skeletal system as the name implies. The smooth muscles are all muscles that aren't skeletal muscles or cardiac muscles such as your diaphragm, which controls breathing, and stomach, which causes the stomach's contraction and expansion. Your cardiac muscles control the heart's beat. So as far as the purpose of the muscles system, is to keep you alive. Without it, you could not move, digest food, or circulate blood throughout your body.
What is the purpose of the muscled system?
Muscles allow the body to move. There is your basic answer. To give more information, you have three types of muscles. They are skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles. Your skeletal muscles are attached to your skeletal system as the name implies. The smooth muscles are all muscles that aren't skeletal muscles or cardiac muscles such as your diaphragm, which controls breathing, and stomach, which causes the stomach's contraction and expansion. Your cardiac muscles control the heart's beat. So as far as the purpose of the muscles system, is to keep you alive. Without it, you could not move, digest food, or circulate blood throughout your body.
What is an example of a cardiac muscle?
An example of cardiac muscle is the myocardium, which is the muscle tissue of the heart. It is responsible for the contraction of the heart chambers to pump blood throughout the body. Cardiac muscle is striated and involuntary, meaning it contracts without conscious control.
What are two involuntary muscles?
Two examples of involuntary muscles are smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. Smooth muscle is found in organs such as the stomach and intestines, while cardiac muscle is found in the heart. Both types of muscles contract without conscious effort.
