Skeletal and cardiac
Largest vs smallest fiber
Skeletal
Smooth
Joined by intercalated discs desmosomes
Cardiac
Regenerates by mitosis
Smooth

Smooth
Circular
Oval
Contractile unit of skeletal muscle for structure and function
Sarcomere
Between 2 z lines
Myosin only
H zone
I band
Actin only
Both actin and myosin
A band
Triad .
T tubules(transverse system )
Sarcoplasmic reticulum(longitudinal system )
Allows a wave of depolarisation to spread
Contraction
Sarcolemma»terminal cisternae»pump ca2+ to fibers»ca2+ allows actin and myosin to shorten the sarcomere»contraction
Dead cardiac muscle is
Infarct
