The cause of the striated appearance of skeletal muscles;
- Skeletal muscles are the flexible muscle tissues that are attached to the bones by means of the tendons.
- These muscles are also referred to as the striated muscle tissues due to their appearance.
- This is because, when observed through a microscope they have a striated appearance because of the dense packaging of the myofibrils.
- Along with it, the regular arrangement of actin and myosin (the contractile proteins) and the sarcomeres also contribute to this striated or striped appearance.
