Leonard Barber is believed to have been the first importer of chickens from the Andalucia region of Spain in 1846-7, but these had an assortment of plumage colours. The standard Blue Andalusian, with its characteristic sharp lacing, was developed in England.
A single skeletal muscle fiber is very long and has many nuclei, located at the periphery of the cell. Individual muscle fibers are parallel to each other. Smooth muscle tissue is found in the walls of hollow internal organs and blood vessels. skeletal muscle is, in general, a muscle that is attached to the bones of the skeleton through a tendon. They are used to provide movement to the body parts, or to maintain â¦ position or posture.
Skeletal muscles move the bones of the body. The functional unit of skeletal muscle is a sarcomere, which consists of thick filaments, called myosin, and thin filaments, called actin. The action of the actin and myosin fibers sliding past one another causes the muscle to contract. The neuromuscular junction is where the nerve cell meets the muscle.
