Another type of muscle is smooth muscle. Unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle does not have striations. This is found in organs such as the stomach, the bladder(膀胱), the lungs and the eyes. Smooth muscles are smaller than the skeletal muscles and they move involuntarily...
Skeletal muscles are attached mainly to the skeletal bones but some are also attached to other structures (such as the eyes for eye movement) and causes movements of the body. Skeletal muscle is also called striated muscle, because of its banding pattern when viewed under a microscope (for cla...
2. Gene is assigned a lab project for his class focusing on muscle tissue. The instructor gave Gene slides with different muscle tissue, and he has to correctly label each slide. He inserts the first slide under the microscope. How could Gene determine that the slide he is looking at is ...
Introduction to the three types of muscle tissue (skeletal, smooth and cardiac); learn about their structure and functions here!
involuntary type of muscle because the contraction of these muscles cannot be controlled consciously. cardiac muscle cells are uninucleated, striated and branched. the cardiac muscle cells are straight which reveals that they seem to have dark and light stripes when seen under a microscope. the ...
There are four types of tissue in the human body: Epithelial: Cells that compose the outside skin and lining of organs and cavities Connective: Tissue that is used to connect or bind parts of the body Nervous: Cells that together compose the nervous system Muscle: Contractile tissues ...
of all parts of the body.Muscle tissueis excitable, responding to stimulation and contracting to provide movement, and occurs as three major types: skeletal (voluntary) muscle, smooth muscle, and cardiac muscle in the heart.Nervous tissueis also excitable, allowing the propagation of electrochemical...
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...
Muscle Contraction – Step 5 Acetylcholine causes the electrical resting potential under the motor end plate to change, and this then initiates an action potential which passes in both directions along the surface of the muscle fiber. Muscle Contraction – Step 6 At the opening of each transverse...
Larger, more complex wounds have a greater volume and can involve exposed vital structures, such as vessels, nerves,tendon,bone, viscera, and other organs. Such wounds require coverage via transposed or transplanted composite segments of skin, subcutaneous tissue,muscle, and, in some cases, bone ...
