the sinoatrial node; located in the right atrium.
pacemaker cells
Muscle cells work together to form a tissue. These cells are by definition tissues. Bone cells work together to form skeletal tissue.
yes it is made up of a group of smells! :P
Which is the most likely function of a group of cells that contains a high number of mitochondrian
A tissue is a group of cells that work together to perform a specific function, such as muscle tissue or nerve tissue. These cells are organized in a specific structure and are interconnected. A group of cells that are merely clumped together lack the organization and coordination seen in tissues, and do not necessarily have a specific function or structure.
a small group of cardiac muscle cells that "set the pace" for the heart as a whole and they begin each contractions.
Cardiac muscle is a tissue. It's a group of cells working together for a common function.
The sinoatrial node is the small group of cardiac muscles that initiates each heart contraction.
pacemaker cells
Muscle cells grouped together are called muscle tissue. The muscle cells contract and elongate to make the movement in the body parts. Muscle cells are found in several specialized forms such as Cardiac, skeletal or smooth muscles etc.Muscle cells grouped together are called muscle tissue.

This is known as a cardiac syncytium, where adjacent cardiac muscle cells are interconnected by gap junctions, allowing them to function as a coordinated unit. This enables the heart to contract efficiently and effectively pump blood throughout the body.
Cardiac tissue is made of cardiac muscle cells and a small amount of connective tissue. The cells that make this tissue are called cardiocytes. They have the special ability to "beat" on their own with no nerve stimulation. If one touches another beating cell, they will begin to beat together. In the heart some group will form a pacemaker to provide a rhythm for the organ.
Cardiac muscle cells are mechanically, chemically, and electrically connected to one another, thus, the entire tissue resembles a single, enormous muscle cell. For this reason, cardiac muscle has been called a functional syncytium. This is also true of smooth muscle.
The heart is a muscle. this is why your heart pumps faster when you excercise your muscles. =]
Unique anatomical feature of the Heart muscle is the presence of intercalated discs. They hold the heart cells together and allow the conduction of impulses between the cells. Also cells have a high quantity of mitochondria, for the provision of energy.

No. A capillary is a small tube carrying blood, a muscle is a group of cells that can contract, generally in order to move something.
