Explain how striated muscle cells become multi-nucleated.
Cell fuse together and overlap to become muscle fiber and in a muscle they become multi - nucleated.
What is the cervical ligament composed of that makes it so elastic?
is a cable like structure of elastin that hold the neck of ruminant animals.
Give the repeating amino acid sequence in collagen?
X - Glycine - Proline - Hydroxiproline - Glycine - X
