What is the difference between muscle cells and nerve cells

Biology
2 answers:
4vir4ik [10]3 years ago
3 0

I mean, there's plenty of differences between muscle and nerve cells. For one, they serve different functions. Nerve cells react and send stimuli rapidly through action potentials, functioning in the nervous system and allowing the brain to communicate with the rest of the body, while muscle cells allow muscles to move. Another difference is the structure of the cells, with nerve cells having dendrites, axons, and neurotransmitters to assist in the firing of action potentials. You're going to have to be a little more specific, I can't really help you any more with such a broad question.

Muscle cells can be smooth (visceral), cardiac, or skeletal. ... Another critical difference between nerve cells and muscular cells is their anatomy.

What are the two major methods by which cells communicate to coordinate their functions?.
Anni [7]

Chemical messengers and the Electrical signals are the two main methods by which cells communicate with each other to coordinate their functions and metabolic activities.

According to biologist, A cell communicates through chemical messengers, by sending the chemical signals to other cells and also receive that signal from another cell. Similarly, Electrical signals or impulses also work in the same way.

Therefore, body contains many types of lipids which works as a chemical messengers also electical signal or impulses can easily travel throught these lipids. Cell uses these chemical messengers and electrical impulses to communicate with other cell.

A seasonal color change helps animals in the taiga to _______.
lianna [129]
The answer is a. evade predators.

Animals that live in taiga had to adapt to seasonal changes, by changing their fur or feather color. For example, snow-show hare and ermine live in taiga and their fur color changes with environmental conditions. To effectively camouflage, their fur is white during the winter. That helps them blend into the snow. In the summer, where there is no snow, their fur is brown and similar to the soil color. This way<span> it is more difficult for their predators to spot them.</span>
