Cardiocytes, which make up cardiac muscle of the heart. Typically, each cell has one nucleus surrounded in glycogen and an abundant of mitochondria. We see prominent striations, and notches at the end of cells called intercalated discs. These discs allow for connection and communication between the cells. Its 3 features include: interdigitating folds to increase SA, fascia adherens and desmosomes that serve as mechanical junctions and lastly, gap junctions which serve as an electrical junction.

Cardiac muscle - limited to the heart where its function is to help pump blood. Cardiac muscle is striated and each is joined by intercalated discs. Cardiac muscle has five properties. 1- contract with a regular rhythm. 2 - must function when a person is asleep and awake. 3 - must be highly resistant to fatigue. 4 - cardiocytes must contact in unison. 5 - each contraction must last long enough to expel blood from the chamber.
