Summary Introduction
To determine:
Similarities and difference between the skeletal muscle tissue and cardiac muscle tissue.
Introduction:
Skeletal muscle tissue cells are cylindrical and long. They are multinucleated and are attached to the bones with the help of tendons. The main function of the skeletal muscle is in the movement and stabilization of the skeleton.
Cardiac muscle cells are short and branched. They are uninucleate and are connected by intercalated discs. They are found in the heart. The main function is pumping and circulation of blood and the maintenance of blood pressure.
