The Muscular System In Nine Different Phyla
On this website, you will find all you need to know about the muscular system in nine phyla. You will find three species of each phylum, and some facts about the muscular system in the phylum as a whole.
Three Basic Tvpes of Muscle Tissue: Some types are not found in some animals
1 Skeletal muscle = moves bones/skeleton, voluntary respiratory organs, eyes, mouth, etc. skeletal muscle fibers are long, cylindrical multinucleate muscle cells or fibers skeletal muscle is striated under voluntary control.
2 Smooth muscle = circle the digestive tract, blood vessels, respiratory, reproductive and urinary ducts; make up parts of many internal organs smooth muscle cells are long, tapering strands that are not multinucleate.
smooth muscle is not striated and under involuntary control
3 Cardiac muscle = heart muscle only. Cardiac muscle is composed of the fast acting, uninucleate muscle cells that make
up the heart cardiac muscle is not striated, under involuntary control, due to specialized connections between cardiac muscle cells called intercalated
