HELPPPPPP A researcher is examining a sample of skeletal muscle under a microscope. Which of the following would correctly describe what she is seeing? Single nucleus per cell, non-striated, short cells Single nucleus per cell, striated, branching cells Multinucleated, non-striated, branching cells Multinucleated, striated, elongated and threadlike cells

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

Skeletal muscle, does this shave a single or multinucleated?

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

skeletal muscle, think about it, does it have one cell or multi cells in a skeletal muscle?

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

@SpanishHisory ?

OpenStudy (spanishhisory):

Its multi right ?

OpenStudy (spanishhisory):

I think the answer is D

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

yes. Skeletal muscle cells are multinucleated because they consist of several cells that have fused together. Muscle cells contain many mitochondria and the characteristic protein filaments(myosin and actin) which are responsible for the muscle contraction. that should explain it in detail enough for you.

OpenStudy (spanishhisory):

Yess, thank you.

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

what about straited, do you think its straited?

OpenStudy (spanishhisory):

yes

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

yes Skeletal muscle is a form of striated muscle tissue which is under the voluntary control of the somatic nervous system. It is one of three major muscle types, the others being cardiac muscle and smooth muscle. Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibers known as tendons.

OpenStudy (alphadxg):

Option D is the best option

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
