Muscle histology -Renyolds Flashcards
responds to stimuli (muscle characteristic)
excitable
shortens with force (muscle characteristic)
contractible
can be stretched (muscle characteristic)
extensible
can recoil to original length (muscle characteristic)
elastic
types of muscles with striations
skeletal and cardiac
type of muscle with long cylindrical shaped (multinucleated) muscle fibers
skeletal
type of muscle with branched, anastomosing fibers
cardiac
type of muscle with fusiform fibers
smooth
type of muscle with intercalated disks
cardiac
gap junctions are present in what type of muscle
smooth
muscle with voluntary control
skeletal
muscles with involuntary control
cardiac and smooth
characteristics of nuclei in skeletal muscle
multinucleated, peripheral
characteristics of nuclei in cardiac muscle
mono/dinucleated in center
characteristics of nuclei in smooth muscle
single, central
which muscles have t tubules
skeletal and cardiac
which muscle has a sarcoplasmic reticulum
all very developed in skeletal muscle less developed in cardiac poorly developed in smooth
which muscle cells regenerate
skeletal (satellite cells) and smooth (mitosis)
how do muscle cells contract
nerve action potential
