Robert Hooke was the first scientist to discover cell. This discovery was made possible by the use of microscope which he invented. With this microscope, Robert examined a cork and noticed pores which filled the entire volume of the thin slices of cork; he called the pores cells. This discovery was made in January 1653.
I think Autorhythmic fibers are fibers that are self excitable or on their own for example some cardiac muscle. They repeatedly generate action potentials that trigger heart contractions.They continue to stimulate a heart to beat even when it is removed from the body. In comparison to contractile fibers, autorhythmic fibers are self excitable and do not require nervous system stimulation to trigger contractions. Contractile fibers have stable resting membrane potentials of -90mV, when a contractile fibers reaches threshold by action potential, the voltage gated fast sodium ions channels will open.
Glucose is converted to energy but for ATP it is used in measuring energy
