Muscular System
Across
- 5. wasting away of muscle
- 6. common in ball and socket joints and combines flexion, extension, abduction and adduction
- 8. touching your thumb to fingers on the same hand
- 11. bundle of muscle fibers and perimysium
- 13. line formed between adjacent sarcomeres
- 18. form 'stripes' on skeletal muscles
- 19. moving of a limb towards the midline
- 20. fatigue occurs when our muscles are strenuously exercised for a long time
- 22. different degrees of shortening based on stimuli
- 25. lifting of the foot
- 28. holds bone and stabilizes the origin
- 29. bringing two bones closure to each other
- 30. membrane covering several sheathed muscle fibers
- 32. elongated muscle cells that are not cardiac muscle cells
- 34. thin filaments
- 35. ex. liver, kidney, stomach
- 36. turning inward of the foot
- 39. only found in muscle fibers and helps in regenerating ATP
- 40. fascicles run parallel to the long axis of the muscle
- 44. connects muscle to other muscles
- 45. high energy molecule found only in muscle fibers
- 48. thick filaments
- 49. only produces 5% of the ATP as aerobic respiration
- 52. mover muscle that has the major responsibility for causing movement
- 56. where muscle attaches to immovable bone
- 57. converted pyruvic acid that is released into the blood stream
- 59. state of stimulation in the muscle where there is no evidence or relaxation and contractions are completely smooth and sustained
- 63. one neuron and all the skeletal muscle cells it stimulates
- 65. moving of a limb away from the midline
- 66. neurotransmitter that stimulates skeletal muscle cells
- 68. connective sheath enclosing muscle fibers
- 69. where the muscle attaches to moveable bone
- 70. short fascicles attach obliquely to a central tendon
- 71. thread like protein in the sarcomeres
- 72. any point of stimulation before fused tetanus
Down
- 1. walls the heart
- 2. contains the mline and tiny protein rods that hold adjacent thick filaments together
- 3. movement of bone around its longitudinal axis
- 4. modification of the parallel arrangement
- 7. contains the H zone
- 9. ex. running
- 10. typically found surrounding external body openings
- 12. banding on the muscle fiber that has a midline interruption called a z disc
- 14. destroyed nerve supply that is no longer stimulated
- 15. projections in the ends of thick filaments
- 16. turning backwards
- 17. begins with muscle fibers being activated by the nervous system
- 21. assist prime movers
- 23. nerve muscle that contains neurotransmitters
- 24. chemical in the neuromuscular junction that stimulates muscle and nerves
- 26. smooth ER that surrounds each myofibril in a loose sleeve
- 27. protein complex involved in muscle contraction
- 31. uses oxygen during rest or moderate exercise
- 33. causes muscle fatigue
- 37. ex. weight lifting
- 38. depressing of the foot
- 41. turning outward of the foot
- 42. electrical current generated by depolarizing the muscle
- 43. turning backwards
- 46. branches of the axon that fits into a junction with the sarcolemma
- 47. movement that increase the angle between 2 bones
- 50. myofilaments sliding movements
- 51. 'overcoat of fascicles
- 53. gap between nerve endings and is filled with interstitial tissue
- 54. long ribbon like organelles that push aside the nuclei and fills the cytoplasm
- 55. tendons that attach indirectly to bone
- 58. reverses a certain movement
- 60. contractile units that make up myofibrils
- 61. blocks the active sights of 6 or 7 actins and prevents them from binding with myosin
- 62. state of continuous partial contractions
- 64. fascicles that converge towards a single insertion tendon
- 67. nerve fiber
