Types of fibers- collagen, reticular, elastic Classification- proper (dense, loose), embryonic (mesenchyme, mucous), specialized (cartilage, adipose, bone, blood) Muscle TissueFeatures- elastic, extensible, contractile Types- skeletal, cardiac (gap junctions, intercalated discs), smooth, striated, non...
Skeletal muscle is one of three major types of muscle tissue in vertebrates (skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle). Both skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle feature a “striated” appearance resulting from the highly organized contractile apparatus that dominates the cellular and tissue organization. Th...
In this lesson, learn about the three types of muscle tissue. Explore the difference between skeletal and smooth muscle and see a cardiac muscle example. Related to this QuestionDescribe some of the structures of a muscle cell. Identify the structure from the given description: Contractile unit...
Smooth muscle tissues are often associated with sub-conscious control of various systems in the body. Smooth muscle tissue is associated with the stomach and intestines and the urinary system. Smooth muscle tissues control blood flow in major organs and are key in regulating blood pressure. Tough ...
Bone - Structure, Function, Types: Grossly, bone tissue is organized into a variety of shapes and configurations adapted to the function of each bone: broad, flat plates, such as the scapula, serve as anchors for large muscle masses, while hollow, thick-
The crystal structure of human muscle creatine kinase has been determined by the molecular-replacement method and refined at 3.5 resolution. The structures of both the monomer and the dimer closely resemble those of the other known structures in the creatine kinase family. Two types of dimers, one...
