skeletal muscle tissue in dogs
Muscle tissue that consists primarily of skeletal muscle fibers. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.
What the skeletal muscle tissue is
Muscle tissue that consists primarily of skeletal muscle fibers. The atlas records it as a tissue at the tissue scale in the dog.
Where the skeletal muscle tissue is
It sits within the muscular system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.
What the skeletal muscle tissue connects to
The atlas records 22 typed relationships for it, across 6 kinds of connection. part of skeletal muscle organ, vertebrate.
Supply and innervation
This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the skeletal muscle tissue. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.
Also called
Also recorded as skeletal muscle, skeletal muscle system and somatic muscle. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Questions
Where is the skeletal muscle tissue?
It sits within the muscular system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.
What does the skeletal muscle tissue connect to?
Part of: skeletal muscle organ, vertebrate.
Is the skeletal muscle tissue the same in other species?
This page describes the dog. The human record of the same structure sits beside it on /compare, over one shared model rather than two atlases built separately.
