a. What are the four types of bone cells? b. Describe their functions. What are the functions of a sesamoid bone? What are the functions of a short bone? Describe the unique anatomical features of cardiac muscle. Explain the structure of a long bone. ...
What are the differences between the structure and function of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle? What are the similarities and differences between the structure and function of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle? What are the functions of skeletal, smoo...
(KEGG) revealed elevation of dN or o for giraffe in genes related to metabolism (tricarboxylic acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation and butyrate), growth and development (cell proliferation, skeletal development and differentiation), the nervous system and cardiac muscle contraction (Supplementary Table ...
to have important functions related to cell shape and cardiac muscle contraction, respectively, are also significantly diverged in giraffe32,33. The observed distinctive changes in these genes may provide clues as to the evolutionary origins of giraffe’s high blood pressure, increased cardiac output...
