Across
- 1. Muscle that opposes the action of the agonist.
- 3. The muscle attachment typically located on the more distal bone.
- 5. A joint that primarily moves in one plane, such as the elbow.
- 9. A bone embedded within a tendon that improves leverage and reduces wear.
- 10. Biaxial joint found at the thumb.
- 12. A joint allowing movement in multiple planes, such as the shoulder.
- 14. The muscle attachment typically located on the more proximal bone.
- 17. Tissue responsible for sensation and motor signaling throughout the body.
- 19. Ability of muscle to return to original length.
- 20. Ability of muscle to develop tension and shorten.
Down
- 2. Lubricating fluid found inside a synovial joint cavity.
- 4. Ability of muscle to stretch.
- 6. Tissue that covers body surfaces and lines organs for protection, secretion, and absorption.
- 7. Connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone.
- 8. The outer covering of a bone.
- 11. The location where two or more bones meet.
- 13. Fibrous structure that connects bone to bone at a joint.
- 15. The primary muscle responsible for producing a specific movement.
- 16. An opening in a bone that allows structures to pass through.
- 18. A joint classification with little or no movement.
