The cells of heart muscle are striated (like stripes on a tie) as is skeletal muscle. Cardiac muscle is a type of involuntary striated muscle found only in the walls of the heart. They can contract but also carry an action potential (i.e. conduct electricity), like the neurons that constitute nerves. Some of the cells have the ability to generate an action potential, known as cardiac muscle automaticity. That is they beat on their own and in union with each other.

Do all the cells of the body look like one another?
No,there are different shapes of cells in human body such as :- spiral,collumner,ellipitcal etc.. Our muscle cells are very long and thin whereas the cells present in our eyes a in cone-shaped.
Why do muscle cells look the way they do?
Muscle cells have their unique elongated and striated appearance due to the arrangement of contractile proteins within them, specifically actin and myosin. This organization, along with the presence of specialized structures like sarcomeres, allows muscle cells to efficiently generate force and enable movement in the body.

Different cells have different appearences because they have different functions. A good rule of thumb is the "form follows function" rule.

What type of cells are found in the heart?
"I am not sure of names but i know that many cells make up the heart! Try to look on the Internet for your answer. Hope this helped a bit :)" You got to be kidding me... that wasn't helpful at all, but whatever. In the heart you can find: - Myocardiocytes - those are the cells performing the rhytmic contraction of the whole heart. - Endothelial cells - those are the supporting epithelial cells, insulating the chambers of the heart and the veins.
Do animal cells look the same?
no because blood, nerve, bone, muscle, and the skin cells all look different. for example: blood cells look like tiny dots and muscle cells look like long stretchy lines
What does a heart artery look like?
Like a little tree branch on the outside of the heart. It's just a small artery that leaves the heart from the inside and goes to the outside so it can distribute fresh blood to the heart muscle itself.The heart muscle is very busy with all the pumping it does constantly and needs this supply of blood. If blood supply is interrupted for even a very short time, the consequences are grave.

What does muscle cell look like under the microscope?
Red blood cells look like little transparent white disks and there is one thing you can do with them . Put a drop of normal saline on one side of the blood filled glass sheet and watch them move away from it like crazy bulls . you may also find platelets moving around on the still blood cells like little shivering dots.
Will you gain muscle if you run?
You will benefit your heart muscle, but you will not gain skeletal muscle. Just look at people like marathon runners who run a lot: instead of looking muscular, they look anaemic. If you want to gain muscle mass, do strength/weight training. For more information about how to build muscle, see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
