Striated muscle


Striated muscles contain sarcomeres
cardiac muscle: found within the heart
skeletal muscle (or "voluntary"): attached to the skeleton and used to facilitate movement
Smooth muscles do not contain sarcomeres ...

striated muscle: skeletal muscle fiber that appears to be banded due to the presence of overlapping actin and myosin filaments; also called voluntary muscle.
substrate: the substance changed or acted on by an enzyme.

Striated muscle:
In the striated muscle cells it is well established that in the appropriate ionic environment, and using energy derived from ATP, thick ('myosin') and thin ('actin') filaments can associate to generate contractile force.

striated muscle
Contractile tissue, in vertebrates consisting of fibrils with marked striations at right angles to the long axis. The muscle is concerned with movement of skeletal parts.

In striated muscle it is specially adapted to surround the myofibrils, forming triads with invaginations of the plasma membrane called T-tubules.

Cardiac muscle fibers are a type of striated muscle found only in the heart. The cell has a bifurcated (or forked) shape, usually with the nucleus near the center of the cell. The cells are usually connected to each other by intercalated disks.

sarcolemma The thin, noncellular sheath that encloses a striated muscle fiber.
Sarcomastigophora The protozoan phylum where members possess flagella, pseudopodia, or both for locomotion and feeding; single type of nucleus.

The contraction of smooth muscle tends to be slower than that of striated muscle. It also is often sustained for long periods. This, too, is called tonus but the mechanism is not like that in skeletal muscle.
