PPT-Neuromuscular Junctions Physiology of Muscle Fibers

Action Potentials The Role of Motor Neurons Motor neurons produce motion by interacting with skeletal muscle Electric signals called action potentials are sent along nerve cells to muscle fibers.

Muscles consist of many . muscle fibers (cells). connected in bundles . Muscle fibers are made up of . myofibrils. Strength training increases the number of myofibrils and the size of muscle fibers = . Pamela BL. Introduction . The cardiac muscle forms the muscular wall of the heart that is it forms the myocardium.. Some of the cardiac muscle is also present in the walls of the aorta, pulmonary vein and superior vena cava.. Muscle Fibers. Muscles are made of many individual cells called fibers. The . Fascia. connects the individual fibers to form a muscle and it separates muscles from each other. .
