nguyên bào cơ
Definition
- Noun (Biology, Anatomy):
- Myoblast: A type of embryonic progenitor cell that develops into a muscle cell (myocyte). It is a mononucleated cell capable of undergoing division and fusing to form multinucleated muscle fibers.
Usage Examples
- Noun:
- Các nguyên bào cơ hợp nhất để tạo thành sợi cơ. (Myoblasts fuse to form muscle fibers.)
- Sự phát triển của cơ bắp bắt đầu từ các nguyên bào cơ. (Muscle development begins with myoblasts.)
Advanced Usage
- In medical and developmental biology contexts, "nguyên bào cơ" is a precise term for the precursor cell in myogenesis (the formation of muscular tissue).
Variants and Related Words
Tế bào cơ (n): Muscle cell; myocyte. The mature cell formed from fused myoblasts.
- Tế bào cơ chứa nhiều nhân. (A muscle cell contains multiple nuclei.)
Sợi cơ (n): Muscle fiber. The long, multinucleated structure formed by the fusion of myoblasts.
- Mỗi sợi cơ được tạo từ nhiều nguyên bào cơ. (Each muscle fiber is made from many myoblasts.)
Synonyms
- Myoblast: The direct English equivalent and synonym.
Related Scientific Terms
