What is the shape of of the masular cell?

a. brached
b. spindle shaped

a. branched- cardiac muscle cells

b. spindle shaped- smooth muscle cells

Explanation:

Muscle cells are termed as myocytes. These are the cells that are made up of muscle tissues. These cells help in the movement and locomotion of the body.

In the human body, there are three types of muscle cells, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. The skeletal muscle cells are cylindrical in shape. The cardiac muscle cells are rectangular in shape and have branching fibers. The smooth muscle cells are spindle-shaped.

fertilization, pictured in figure 24.23a is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. the egg and sperm each contain one set of chromosomes. to ensure that the offspring has only one complete diploid set of chromosomes, only one sperm must fuse with one egg. in mammals, the egg is protected by a layer of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of glycoproteins called the zona pellucida. when a sperm binds to the zona pellucida, a series of biochemical events, called the acrosomal reactions, take place. in placental mammals, the acrosome contains digestive enzymes that initiate the degradation of the glycoprotein matrix protecting the egg and allowing the sperm plasma membrane to fuse with the egg plasma membrane, as illustrated in figure 24.23b. the fusion of these two membranes creates an opening through which the sperm nucleus is transferred into the ovum. the nuclear membranes of the egg and sperm break down and the two haploid genomes condense to form a diploid genome.
