3 types of muscle tissue except?

Unique to Cardiac Muscles

Skeletal Muscles has multinucleated cells

Composed of Fusiform Cells

A thin connective tissue layer that immediately surrounds each bundle of muscle fibers

A Band

Light Bands

Dark Band

Z Disc

The largest protein in the body , with scaffolding and elastic properties, which supports the thick myofilaments and connects them to Z disc

Binds each thin myofilament laterally, helps anchor them to a-actin in, and specifies the length of the actin polymers during myogenesis

Actin-binding protein that anchors actin filaments perpendicularly on the Z disc

Corresponding to a region with only the rod-like portions of the myosin molecule and no thin filaments

Protein that holds the thick filament in place.

Tubular infoldings of sarcolemma

Striations are absent in smooth muscle

Contains Dense Bodies

Specialized for rapid, short-term contraction

Major Source of ATP ( Fast, Glycolytic)

Use calmodulin instead of troponin and tropomyosin

Serve as points for transmitting the contractile force not only within cells, but also with adjacent cells in smooth muscles
