Summary Introduction
To determine:
The parts of a muscle in the given figure.
Introduction:
Muscle can be defined as a bundle or band of fibrous tissue in an animal or human body that has the capability to contract and produce movement in or upholding the location of body parts. There are 3 types of muscle tissue: smooth, cardiac, and skeletal. All muscles are made up of a type of elastic tissue.

The muscle fibers are parallel to one another and have a striated appearance. They have more mitochondria than other types of muscle cells. Each fiber contains many units of contraction and protein filaments. Cells are branched or unbranched with single nuclei. It consists of cylindrical cells called muscle fibers that have multiple nuclei.arrow_forwardExplain how a muscle’s location allows you to determine the movements made possible by this muscle.
