Across
  1. 4. far from surface
  2. 5. the fine transparent tubular sheath that envelops the fibers of skeletal muscles
  3. 6. denoting muscular action in which tension is developed without contraction of the muscle
  4. 7. the property of a cell that enables it to react to irritation or stimulation
  5. 9. the movement of a limb or other part away from the midline of the body, or from another part
  6. 10. or relating to a muscle with a central tendon toward which the fibers converge on either side
  7. 13. together make up the contractile units (called sarcomeres) of skeletal muscle fibers
  8. 18. relating to, involving, or requiring an absence of free oxygen
  9. 19. having the form of a circle
Down
  1. 1. a deep invagination of the sarcolemma, which is the plasma membrane of skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle cells
  2. 2. the action of bending or the condition of being bent
  3. 3. the ability of an object or material to resume its normal shape after being stretched or compressed
  4. 7. the delicate connective tissue surrounding the individual muscular fibers within the smallest bundles
  5. 8. a turning away from the midline of the body
  6. 11. a bundle of skeletal muscle fibers surrounded by perimysium
  7. 12. having the fibers arranged obliquely and inserting into a tendon only on one side in the manner of a feather barbed on one side
  8. 14. the prolonged contraction of a muscle caused by rapidly repeated stimuli
  9. 15. a layer of fibrous connective tissue which can surround individual muscles, and also divide groups of muscles into compartments
  10. 16. tissue that is marked by transverse dark and light bands, is made up of elongated usually multinucleated fibers
  11. 17. made up of a motor neuron and the skeletal muscle fibers innervated by that motor neuron's axonal terminals
