Diagrammatically show the difference between the three types of muscle fibers and explain them ....And FOLLOW ME ☺☺☺​

Answer 1

here is the answer

diagrammatically difference betwen three types of muscle fibers

Ans: The three types of muscle fibres are:- Striated muscles, smooth muscles and cardiac muscles.

Muscle is a soft tissue found in most animals. Muscle cells contain protein filaments of actin and myosin that slide past one another, producing a contraction that changes both the length and the shape of the cell. Muscles function to produce force and motion. They are primarily responsible for maintaining and changing posture, locomotion, as well as movement of internal organs, such as the contraction of the heart and the movement of food through the digestive system via peristalsis.

Hey beautiful

Here is your answer

Skeletal Muscles:

•They are also known as striped, striated, somatic and voluntary muscles

•They are the most abundant type and are found attached to the skeleton. For this reason they are called skeletal muscles.

•They are innervated by somatic nervous system and are therefore under voluntary control. They obey the will of human beings.

•They respond quickly to stimuli and are capable of rapid contractions. They get fatigued easily because of their rapidity

•Each muscle fiber is multinucleated cylindrical cell containing groups of myofibrils. The myofibrils are in turn made up of myofilaments of three types namely actin, myosin, and tropomyosin. Thus the skeletal muscles have three structural levels namely muscle fibers, myofibrils and myofilaments.

•Examples of skeletal muscles include all muscles of body wall.

Smooth muscles:

•They are also known as plain, unstriped, visceral and involuntary muscles.

•Unlike skeletal muscles, they do not exhibit cross striations under the microscope and thus they got the name “smooth”.

•They are supplied by autonomic nervous system and therefore they are involuntary in their action. They do not obey the will of human being.

•They respond slowly to stimuli but are capable of long time sustained contractions. They do not get fatigued easily because of their slowness of response.

•They provide motor power for regulating internal environment related to digestion, circulation, secretion and excretion.

•Each smooth muscle fiber is an elongated spindle shaped cell with a single nucleus placed at the center. They also possess actin and myosin filaments but the structural arrangement of these filaments is very different as compared to the skeletal muscles.

•Examples of smooth muscles include muscles of blood vessels, and muscles of the gut etc.

Cardiac muscles:

•They form the myocardium of human heart.

•Cardiac muscle is intermediate in structure lying between the skeletal and smooth muscles. They are striated like skeletal muscles but at the same time they are involuntary and have uninuclear

•Each muscle fiber has a single centrally placed nucleus. The fibers branch and anastomoses with each other to form a syncytium. Neighboring cells are joined by intercalated discs which provide conductive pathways from one cell to another.

cells like smooth muscles.

•They are meant for automatic rhythmic contractions for long period of time.
