    types of muscle skeletal which are voluntary‚ smooth muscle which are involuntary and cardiac muscle. Muscle is made up of protein filaments‚ myosin and actin. These filaments slide past each other to produce a contraction which changes both the length and shape of the cell. The primary function of the muscle is to produce both movement and force. Skeletal muscle is composed of bundles of muscle fibres containing myofibrils of thick and thin filaments (myosin and actin). Skeletal muscle have distinct

    Animals have three types of muscles; skeletal‚ smooth‚ and cardiac. This lab however is only concerned with skeletal muscle. A special characteristic of skeletal muscle is their ability to contract or shorten via thin (actin) and thick (myosin) filaments (Flanagan‚2017). This gives a striated appearance which is a key distinguishing characteristic between other types of muscle (Flanagan‚2017). Skeletal muscle is also multinucleated. Skeletal muscle needs plentiful amounts of energy to be able to
