Zoology - Structural Organisation in Animals Question with Solution | TestHub
Common features of striated and faintly striated cardiac muscles are
Presence of troponin.
Use offor muscle contraction.
Vascularity
Gap junctions.
Control by Visceral Nervous System (ANS).
Which of these features are correct?
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
Human muscles are classified into three types depending on location, function and structure. These three types are:Skeletal or striated or voluntarySmooth or involuntary or non striatedCardiac muscles
Cardiac muscles are muscles related to the walls of the heart. These muscles are structurally like skeletal but functionally resemble smooth muscles. These have striations and thus contraction and relaxation results use muscle proteins like troponin , actin , myosin and tropomyosin. Gap junctions are seen in smooth and cardiac muscle.
