Anatomy Of Muscle Tissue. Single-unit smooth muscle consists of multiple cells connected through connexins that can be stimulated in a synchronous pattern from only one synaptic input. MUSCLE TISSUE AND GROSS ANATOMY OF SKELETAL MUSCLE.
Muscle is one of the four primary tissue types of the body and the body contains three types of muscle tissue. The root contains three erectile tissues two crura and bulb of the penis and two muscles ischiocavernosus and bulbospongiosus. Each skeletal muscle has three layers of connective tissue that enclose it provide structure to the muscle and compartmentalize the muscle fibers within the muscle Figure 1021.
Cardiac muscle tissue is only found in the heart.
Muscle is derived from the Latin word musculus meaning little mouse. Similar to skeletal muscle cardiac muscle is striated and organized into sarcomeres possessing the same banding organization as skeletal muscle link. The penis can be anatomically divided into three parts. Note also that muscle fibers are held together by the perimysium in groups called fascicles.
