Summary Introduction
To review:
The difference between neuromuscular junction and a motor unit.Â
Introduction:
Muscle tissues are soft type of tissues present in the walls of hollow organs and most of the internal organs. They are also present in association with the skeleton of the human body. Muscle tissues help in moving substances throughout the body. These tissues have the potential to contract or shorten in order to produce body movements.Â
