Desmosomes form channels that allow each cardiac motet to electrically stimulate its neighbors. A) True B) False

Solution

Desmosomes are the intercellular junction of cardiac muscles, act as a signaling center important in the process of proliferation, and differentiation. Sarcolemma in the muscle contraction comprises of gap junction and desmosomes. Gap junction forms channel in muscle fiber resulting in depolarisation leading of electric coupling. These events results in the generation of active potential. On the other hand, desmosomes provides the strength to the cardiac muscles.

Thus above statement is false
