How does muscle cell’s structure relate to its function?

• It has the ability to shorten/lengthen in order to produce movement of the body parts

• Elongated shape does not help in the movement of the muscle cells

• Muscle cells are no different from the other cells in the body

• Like a neuron (nerve cell), muscle cells have a tail like structure called axon
