The intercalated discs of the heart muscle have gap junctions that allow electrical impulses to pass from one myocyte to the next, so they contract in unison as a syncytium, in a phenomenon called electrical coupling. Intercalated disks also have desmosomes, that provide structural support and prevent the myocytes from tearing away from one another during the stresses of contraction.

Which of the following explains why nonrenewable energy resources are still so widely used. Select multiple
egoroff_w [7]
Non renewable resources can be very expensive, especially in capital outlay. For example, wind energy is very expensive to get started. The batteries alone are a headache. What do you do with those batteries whose life is over? How do you dispose of them? It isn't an easy problem to solve.

Then there's the labor part of wind energy. If they are manufactured in Denver Co and they receive an order from Maine, the blades require a wooden plywood box to be made. Plywood is roughly 20$ a 1/2 sheet (in Canada) to say nothing of the carpenter needed to make the box. I'm told that it takes a good day and one half just to make that box alone. That's for 1 blade. Then there's the shipping cost for 3 blades. Then there's the cost of making the blades which require highly skilled workers. 

Then there's the problem of wind, (or lack thereof). the problems just keep on going up and the expenses with them.
