why muscle cells are not branched???

Dear Student,

Muscle cells align themselves properly over one another makes easy for them to contract and relax while movement of the body parts. Hence, they are spindle-shaped not branched.

One commonality between skeletal and cardiac muscle is the presence of striations due to the arrangement of actin and myosin into regular myofibrils. ... Four characteristics define smooth muscle tissue cells: they are involuntarily controlled,not striated, not branched, and singly nucleated.
