Once calcium is bound to troponin-C and the conformational change of tropomyosin has occurred myosin heads can bind to actin. They are self-stimulated for a period of time. B A photomicrograph of cardiac muscle cells.

It fits snugly between the two lungs.

The most striking difference is the lack of striations and stripes. Cardiac muscle is involuntary striated muscle that is found in the walls and histological foundation of the heart specifically the myocardiumThe cardiac muscle cells also called cardiomyocytes or myocardiocytes predominantly contain only one nucleus although populations with two to four nuclei do exist. The cardiac axis therefore lies at about 30. Lead II 60 is almost equiphasic and therefore the axis lies at 90 to this lead that is 150 to the right or 30 to the left.
