Muscular Tissue Flashcards
what are the two subdivisions of striated muscle
skeletal and cardiac
muscle cells posses a certain kind of filament what is it?
contractile filaments
what are the major components of the contractile filaments in muscle
actin and mysoin
surronds fascicles of muscle cells
perimysium
surrounds individual muscle cells
endomysium
surronds muscle and forms aponerosis
epimysium
muscle fibers are what shape
polyganeal
when is muscle fiber formed
when the small individual muscle cells myoblast make them)
what is the diameter of muscle fibers
10-100 micrometers
how are muscle fibers and connective tissue fibers different
connective tissue fibers are cellular products of CT cells
and
muscle fibers are cellular elements!!!
where are the nuclei of skeletal muscle located
in the cytoplasm immediately beneath the plasma membrane
the nuclei of skeletal muscle are in the cytoplasm beanth the plasma membrane, aslo known as
Sarcolemma
sarcolemma
plasma membrane of the cell, its external lamina and reticular lamina
