Detailed explanation-1: -Skeletal muscles are made up of long and cylindrical cells. They are multinucleate (having many nuclei) and unbranched. They are also known as striated muscles because they have alternate dark and light bands. They move as per our will, hence they are categorised as voluntary muscles.
Detailed explanation-2: -Skeletal muscles consist of flexible muscle fibers that range from less than half an inch to just over three inches in diameter. These fibers usually span the length of the muscle. The fibers contract (tighten), which allows the muscles to move bones so you can perform lots of different movements.
Detailed explanation-3: -Skeletal muscle fibers are cylindrical, multinucleated, striated, and under voluntary control.
Detailed explanation-4: -EXPLANATION: A striated skeletal muscle is cylindrical, syncytial and unbranched.
Detailed explanation-5: -Skeletal muscle has four major functional characteristics: contractility, excitability, extensibility, and elasticity.
