Skeletal muscle is striated and under voluntary control. Cardiac muscle is also striated but under involuntary control. Smooth muscle is not striated and is under involuntary control. Explain why we see striations in both skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle but not in smooth muscle. Also explain what it means to be under voluntary or involuntary control.
Striations are formed by the arrangement of actin and myosin filaments which form alternating dark and light bands.A and I bands are present.A band is anisotropic band and I band is isotropic band. Smooth muscles have different arrangement of myofibrils so they lack striations.Skeletal muscles are more prominently striated than cardiac muscle.
Voluntary means under a person control he can control muscle action whenever he wants to stop he can stop action of muscle whenever he wants.
Involuntary means they are not under control of a person they even work even when a person sleeps or take rest
Smooth muscles -examples-respiratory tract,genital tract,gut
Cardiac muscles work continuously without stop from birth till death.

Draw the basic structure of skeletal muscle. Label the following: Epimysium, Fascicle, Muscle Fibers, Perimysium, tendon. 3. Define the following terms: 1. A Band 2. I Band 3. Z disk 4. H zone 5. M line Label the above on the following. Also include "sarcomere." 4. Complete the following chart Striated One or Size & Shape of Voluntary Special Or Non-striated Multiple Nuclei Cell Or Involuntary Features Muscle Type Cardiac Muscle Skeletal Muscle Smooth Muscle
Fill out the chart below for the muscle tissues Muscle type Location Voluntary or Involuntary Striated? Single or muti- nucleate Type Areolar Connective Tissue Found Under Epithelium Made up of Adipose Tissue Fat Reticular Tissue Tendons/ligaments Fibroblasts, regularly arranged collagen fibers Dense Irregular Dermis Fibroblasts, elastic fibers Hyaline-trachea Fibrocartilage - IV discs Elastic - external ear Bones Circulatory system Blood plasma, red and white blood cells
Cylindrical, striated, voluntary cells make up _muscle. Smooth Cardiac Nervous Skeletal Ndt Discuss two specific muscles of the Axial Skeleton. Detail their attachment, insertion joint, and adjacent ligaments if any.
Compare and contrast the following traits for skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscle. You MUST clearly indicate which muscle tissue type you are referring to. Making a table is helpful. Number of nuclei in each cell Whether sarcomeres are present (yes or no sarcomeres?) Where the muscle type is generally found in the body (specify organ). For muscle tissues found in multiple places, name AT LEAST TWO places in the body (organs, not muscle names) where it can be found. Whether...
Classify the characteristics of the three types of muscles. Some labels may be used more than once. Cardiac Muscle Skeletal Muscle Smooth Muscle Characteristics: Composed of spindle- shaped cells Composed of branching, striated cells Functions in voluntary body movements Found only in the walls of the heart Found in muscles attached to the body's bones Involuntary muscle Named for cells that lack striation Also called voluntary muscle Individual cells have multiple nuclei Individual cells have a single nucleus
Compare the rates of muscle contraction and relaxation of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles. How do they differ? What relationship best describes the differences? Draw a figure to illustrate this. What are the differences mostly due to? (5 pts)
Answer the following questions about muscle tissue: 1. What makes a skeletal muscle slide easy to identify from other tissue slides? 2. When you see a highly structured muscle cell with many nuclei pushed to one side, which muscle type is being observed? 3. What structure is unique and can be used to differentiate between smooth muscle slide and a cardiac muscle slide? 4. Why can it be hard to identify the smooth muscles in a slide? 5. Which muscle...
Abe knew from his anatomy class that there are three different kinds of muscle tissue in the body. He knew lifting weights would help build the skeletal muscle and that running was good for cardiac muscle health. He was surprised to find out that his blood vessels had smooth muscle, so his exercise regimen was actually benefitting all the muscle types of his body. Correctly sort each of the characteristics into the appropriate category. View Available Hint(s) Reset Help Under...

If we repeatedly stimulate a myocardial cell, and a skeletal muscle cells every 50 ms, what are the differences of muscle tension between these two types of cells? Explain why contractions in cardiac muscle cells are different to skeletal muscle cells
