Pennate Muscles
A pennate muscle is a type of skeletal muscle with fibers arranged at an oblique angle to its tendon, resembling a feather. This structure allows for a greater number of muscle fibers to be packed into a given volume, resulting in higher force production and power, though the range of motion is typically smaller compared to other muscle types. Examples of pennate muscles include unipennate, bipennate, and multipennate arrangements-Pkk
