Skeletal muscle fibers are long to facilitate efficient contraction and force generation over a large range of motion. Their elongated structure allows for a greater number of myofibrils, which contain the contractile proteins actin and myosin, enhancing their ability to produce force. Additionally, the length of these fibers allows for a greater surface area for neuromuscular junctions, optimizing the communication necessary for coordinated movement. This design is essential for the muscle's role in supporting locomotion and various physical activities.

What are facts about a skeletal muscle cell?
Skeletal muscle cells are long, barrel shaped, and striated cells that are answerable for development. They are comprised of heaps of muscle strands called myofibers, and are appended to bones by ligaments

SKELETAL (:
What muscle tissue is multinucleated?
skeletal muscles
Which muscle is not directly controlled by the autonomic nervous system?
smooth muscle, cardiac muscle and most glands
Which muscle tissue concerns with locomotion of the body as a whole?
Skeletal muscle
What type of muscle is the tricep muscle?
A skeletal muscle.
What does it mean if a muscle is striated?
Striated muscle includes cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle. Cardiac muscle is found only in the heart. Skeletal muscle is between bones and is voluntarily controlled. Examples of skeletal muscle are the sternoclydomastoid, biceps, obicularis oris, rectus femoris, etc.
What is straited muscle?
straited muscle are another form of skeletal muscle.
What are the feature of skeletal muscle?
The skeletal muscle is heavily stratified
Is the skeletal muscle a smooth muscle?
no skeletal muscles are voluntary smooth muscles are not
What type of tissue is skeletal muscle?
Skeletal muscle is voluntary muscle.
What is a group of skeletal muscle fibers?
