Anatomy
Across
- 2. Connective tissue attaching muscle to bone
- 8. Movable muscles attachment point
- 10. Muscle changes length while maintaining tension
- 11. Sustained Muscle contraction without relaxation
- 16. Membrane channels conducting signals into muscle fibers
- 18. Stores and releases calcium in muscle cells
- 19. Connections between actin and myosin filaments during muscle contraction
Down
- 1. the site where motor neuron communicates with muscle fiber
- 3. Breakdown of glucose for energy, producing ATP and pyruvate
- 4. Muscle tension without length change
- 5. Muscle primarily responsible for movement
- 6. Actin and myosin fibers enabling muscle contraction
- 7. Muscle aiding the prime mover
- 9. Oxygen binding protein in muscles
- 12. Fixed muscle attachment point
- 13. Byproduct of anaerobic glycolysis, causes muscle fatigue
- 14. Basic contract unit of muscle fibers
- 15. A motor neuron and all its connected muscle fibers
- 17. Energy production without oxygen, often during intense activity
