Question

Why would your heart not function well if constructed of skeletal muscle? What is the particular characteristic of cardiac muscle that is key to proper heart function?

Answer 1

The Skeletal muscle is a voluntary muscle it play major role in regulation of body parts.The skeletal muscle generally undergo process of the muscle contraction.the fibres undergo rapid and powerful contraction but the contraction activity not for the long time .and it also control movement and locomotion of body parts .during the heart beat and functioning of heart there is also movement. After constracted of skeletal muscle hence heart not a able to do work properly.

The cardiac muscle generally found in the myocardium of the heart it is has a characteristic feather of Contraction .

The cardiac muscle is undergo process of the rhythmic contraction and can initiate their own waves of exicitation .they contract rapidly so these work with good efficiency.

Hence Cardiac muscle is key for heart proper functioning.
