Muscle cells


Actin and myosin are what type of biological molecule?

Actin and myosin are proteins. They are responsible for muscle movement and a variety of movements of non muscle cells. For more information visit http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK9961/


Do muscle cells work together to allow movement?

Muscle cells contract and relax in response to nerve impulses, causing movement. The human body has three types of muscle cells. Skeletal muscle cells control movement of bones, such as our arms and legs.


Muscle tissue is made up of cells that contract and release to produce movement Which process provides the energy that the cells need to contract?

Tissue made of cells that contract and relax to produce movement is called muscle tissue.


Which type of cells are specialized for movement of the body?

Muscle cells are specialized for movement of the body. They have extra mitochondria so that they can utilize the energy necessary to contract muscles. A whole chain of muscle cells contracting will cause the muscle to "flex."


What cell helps the movement of bones?

Muscle cells.


What is a group of muscle cells called?

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.

How do mature human nerve cells and muscle cells interact in the body to facilitate movement and coordination?

Mature human nerve cells send signals to muscle cells, triggering them to contract and produce movement. This communication allows for coordination and control of muscle movements in the body.


What does a flagellum of a muscle cell do?

Muscle cells do not have flagella. Flagella are for a cell's or small organism's movement.


What kind of cells in your body can contract?

Muscle cells contract, causing movement and our heartbeat.
