Across
  1. 2. muscle, a voluntary, striated muscle tissue that connects to bones via tendons.
  2. 4. the cytoplasm of striated muscle cells
  3. 8. primary energy currency for all living cells
  4. 9. decrease in size or wasting away of a body part or tissue
  5. 14. Phosphate, the main high-energy, phosphate-storage molecule of muscle
  6. 16. continuous movement of blood throughout the body
  7. 17. muscle, helps with digestion and nutrient collection
  8. 22. drive muscle contraction and relaxation
  9. 23. Reticulum, system of closed sac like membranes involved in the storage of intracellular calcium in striated (skeletal) muscle cells.
  10. 26. fibres, characterized by a high endurance capacity and a slow contraction speed.
  11. 28. Fibers, long, cylindrical, multinucleated cells that constitute skeletal muscle tissue, varying in length and diameter
  12. 29. a fibrous globulin of muscle that can split ATP
  13. 30. highly organized tissues that convert chemical energy to physical work.
  14. 31. Cellular Respiration, organisms break down sugars to produce usable energy in the form of ATP
  15. 32. switch, a fast, sudden muscle movement, like a twitch.
  16. 34. chemical process by which molecules such as glucose are broken down anaerobically
  17. 36. tissue that attaches a muscle to other body parts, usually bones.
  18. 37. Relaxation of a Skeletal Muscle.
  19. 39. a muscle that helps you inhale and exhale
Down
  1. 1. the membrane enclosing a striated muscle fiber
  2. 3. exercise-induced decline in the ability of a muscle to generate force or power.
  3. 5. muscle, a specialized, involuntary striated muscle tissue found exclusively in the heart wall, responsible for pumping blood through the cardiovascular system
  4. 6. threadlike contractile proteins
  5. 7. Period, period between causal action and disease initiation.
  6. 10. a type of involuntary muscle movement that occurs in your digestive system.
  7. 11. Atrophy, the increase in size of skeletal muscle fibers.
  8. 12. a protein found in heart muscle cells that helps them contract.
  9. 13. Period, your uterus contracts to help expel its lining.
  10. 15. Period, the final phase of a muscle twitch, occurring after the contraction phase.
  11. 18. tone, strength training with weight loss.
  12. 19. a two-stranded alpha-helical, coiled coil protein
  13. 20. state of balance, and your body regulates its own systems to reach and maintain it.
  14. 21. repeated twitch contractions where the previous twitch has not relaxed completely
  15. 24. disease of the nervous system caused by a toxin-producing bacterium.
  16. 25. Deficit, what causes us to breathe harder and faster during exercise
  17. 27. fibres, cytoskeletal structural components found in the cells of vertebrates, and many invertebrates.
  18. 28. A protein in your muscles that helps them get the oxygen they need to keep moving
  19. 30. Filament Model, states that the sliding of actin past myosin generates muscle tension
  20. 33. the process in which a muscle becomes or is made shorter and tighter.
  21. 34. fibres, dominant individuals excel at explosive, heavy, and short-duration activities.
  22. 35. a cellular protein found especially in microfilaments
  23. 38. Ions (Ca 2+), positively charged particles formed when calcium atoms lose two electrons.
