The presence or absence of a basement membrane in muscle cells can be attributed to the specific roles and functions of different muscle cell types within the body. Muscle cells, also known as myocytes, can be broadly categorized into three types: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth

๐Ÿค”Why do some cells, or groups of cells, have a basement membrane and others don't? Students are often confused when we discuss the muscle fibre basement membrane during muscle regeneration so I'm looking for more insight - thank you! @THEmeshwork2020

I have always liked riding bikes, but my dad was so terrified something might happen to me that he paid his friends to come and steal my bikes so I wouldn't ride them anymore and I'd be safe ( a very true story). Riding a bike, whether a traditional bicycle or an electric bike
