In what three ways can muscle cells be classified?
Muscle cells can be classified based on their structure as either skeletal, smooth, or cardiac muscle cells. These types of muscle cells differ in their appearance and function. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and help with voluntary movements, smooth muscles are found in the walls of organs and blood vessels, and cardiac muscles are unique to the heart.
If its cells are striated and fused at the ends so that the cells contract as a unit then the tissue is what?
The tissue you are describing is cardiac muscle tissue. It is found in the heart and its cells are striated (have bands) and connected by intercalated discs, allowing them to contract in sync and pump blood effectively.
Which type of muscle is multinucleated striated and in cylinder form?
Skeletal muscle.
What cells make up the myocardium?
The myocardium is composed of cardiomyocytes, which are specialized muscle cells that form the heart muscle tissue. These cells are responsible for contraction of the heart and pumping blood throughout the body.
Is Heart made up of striated or non striated muscles?
Heart muscle is striated but not in the same way that skeletal muscle is. Cardiac muscle is a type of involuntary striated muscle found only in the walls of the heart.Cardiac and skeletal muscle are similar in that both appear to be striated in that they contain sarcomeres. In striated muscle, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle, the actin and myosin filaments each have a specific and constant length on the order of a few micrometers, far less than the length of the elongated muscle cell (a few millimeters in the case of human skeletal muscle cells).The filaments are organized into repeated subunits along the length. These subunits are called sarcomeres. The sarcomeres are what give skeletal and cardiac muscles their striated appearance of narrow dark and light bands, because of the parallel arrangement of the actin and myosin filaments.However, cardiac muscle has unique features relative to skeletal muscle. For one, the myocytes are much shorter and are narrower than the skeletal muscle cells, being about 0.1 millimeters long and 0.02 millimeters wide .Furthermore, while skeletal muscles are arranged in regular, parallel bundles, cardiac muscle connects at branching, irregular angles.Anatomically, the muscle fibers are typically branched like a tree branch. In addition, cardiac muscle fibers connect to other cardiac muscle fibers through intercalcated discs and form the appearance of a syncytium (continuous cellular material).These intercalcated discs, which appear as irregularly-spaced dark bands between myocytes, are a unique and prominent feature of cardiac muscle .
What type of muscle is striated?
Striated muscle tissue is muscle tissue that has repeating tubular muscle cells. Striated muscles include skeletal striated muscle, embryotic branchiomeric muscle, and cardiac muscle.
What muscle is striated uninucleated cells?
Cardiac muscle is made up of striated uninucleated cells. These cells have a single nucleus and are arranged in a striated pattern, giving them a striped appearance under a microscope.
Muscle cells that are branched and striated are?
skeletal muscles
What has the author Lillie written?
Lillie has written: 'The physiological significance of the segmented structure of the striated muscle fibre' -- subject(s): Striated muscle

Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and help with voluntary movements, smooth muscles are found in the walls of organs and blood vessels, and cardiac muscles are unique to the heart.
What structure caused the striated appearance of the skeletal muscle?
big dig
Is striated muscle cells are long and cylindrical with many nuclei?
Yes
A tissue composed of long striated cells with multiple nuclei is?
Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of long striated cells with multiple nuclei. These cells are voluntary muscles responsible for body movement and are under conscious control. Skeletal muscle tissue is classified as striated due to its alternating light and dark banding pattern when viewed under a microscope.
What are the differences between smooth muscle and striated muscle in terms of their structure and function?
Smooth muscle and striated muscle differ in their structure and function. Smooth muscle lacks striations and is found in organs like the intestines and blood vessels, where it contracts involuntarily. Striated muscle, like skeletal and cardiac muscle, has a striped appearance and is under voluntary control. Skeletal muscle is responsible for movement, while cardiac muscle pumps blood throughout the body.
Which muscle is also called striated striated muscle?
skelatal
How is heart muscle different from striated muscle?
Cardiac muscle is a type of involuntary striated muscle found in the walls of the heart, specifically the myocardium. Cardiac muscle cells are known as cardiac myocytes (or cardiomyocytes). Cardiac muscle is one of three major types of muscle, the others being skeletal and smooth muscle. The cells that comprise cardiac muscle are sometimes seen as intermediate between these two other types in terms of appearance, structure, metabolism, excitation-coupling and mechanism of contraction. Cardiac muscle shares similarities with skeletal muscle with regard to its striated appearance and contraction, with both differing significantly from smooth muscle cells.Source: http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_muscle
What is structure of muscular system?
It all depends on which type of muscle: smooth, cardiac or striated.
