Description
A transmission electron micrograph showing a cross
section through a skeletal muscle fibre. The cell
(fibre) contains numerous myofibrils, seen here as
groups of regularly arranged small dark dots. The
cell is seen in transverse section (cross
section). The only organelles that are obvious in
this cell are the nucleus and numerous small
mitochondria.
