Heart muscle fiber model based on

MACHINE TRANSLATION (not authorised yet)

The anatomical model of the structure of the muscle fiber of the human heart is presented in the longitudinal and transverse sections, illustrating the way it shrinks. Colour model, made of plastic, on the base, enlarged in relation to natural size.
It is worth remembering that the heart muscle tissue is specific and can only be found in vertebrates. This specific structure, including fork-branched fibers (shown on the model), allows for cardiac muscle contractions that are independent of human will (as opposed to, for example, skeletal striated muscles).Dimensions: 42 x 30 x 11 cm.
