Compare the structure of a nerve cell to the structure of a muscle cell. What explains the anatomical similarities? What are the main differences? Cells: Cells are the basic structural and functional units of all living organisms. ...

The functions of the human muscular system are the generation of body movement, maintenance of posture, production of body heat, constriction of organs and vessels, pulmonary ventilation, and contraction of the heart, which generates the heartbeat.Answer and Explanation: A muscle cell is ca...
A muscle cell's ability to contract, or shorten itself, permits movement. All contraction depends on the presence of actin and myosin. Stimulation of actin and myosin bundles causes the proteins to slide toward one another, thereby shortening the fibers. Stimulation may come from a nerve signal,...
Bodies contain three types of muscle cell: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Each serves a different, but important, function in human life. Different Muscle Lengths Skeletal muscle cells form elongated fibers in the body. They have multiple nuclei within each cell. This contrasts with the majority...
Identify the structure from the given description: The cytoplasm of a muscle cell. Most antifungal agents target the formation or structure of what cellular structure? A) cytoplasmic membrane B) ribosome C) cell wall D) mitochondrion Where does the Krebs cycle take place? a. Mitocho...
Abdominal muscles of the cephalocarid Hutchinsoniella macracantha resemble the striated muscle fibers of other crustaceans, having regularly aligned sarcomeres that average 5 mu m in length; thick, wavy Z-lines; and orbits of eight thin filaments surrounding a thick filament. However, unlike most...
muscle cells from mice lacking the muscle lineage transcription factor (TF), MyoD, versus wild-type mice. We show that MyoD functions as a “genome organizer” that specifies 3D genome architecture unique to muscle cell development, and that H3K27ac is insufficient for the establishment of MyoD...
