Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Muscle tissue is a type of soft tissue present in the muscles that gives rise to the function of contraction in muscles. The muscle tissue is formed during embryonic development by a process called myogenesis. The muscle cells contain mitochondria that provide energy to the cells.
