Across
- 4. Stores calcium in muscle cells
- 7. Muscle not striated, found in organs, and is involuntary
- 8. Involuntary muscle found only in the heart with intercalated discs
- 12. Neurotransmitter necessary for muscle excitation and contraction
- 14. Muscles that cooperate with the primary mover
- 18. Muscle wasting due to disuse
- 19. Muscle attachment site that moves when the muscle contracts
- 21. Major muscle for breathing, separating thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities
- 22. Long organelles in striated muscle cells
Down
- 1. Condition when muscles lose tonus (tone)
- 2. Carbohydrate stored in muscles for energy, converted to glucose when needed
- 3. Increased growth or development of muscles
- 5. Muscle opposing the primary mover in a movement
- 6. Muscle with a striped appearance found in skeletal muscles
- 9. Muscle controlled by thought
- 10. Process by which muscle contractions occur through the filament mechanism
- 11. Partial contraction of a muscle providing tone
- 13. Energy source required for muscle contraction
- 15. Muscle not under conscious control
- 16. Ability to contract or cause contraction
- 17. Smallest functional unit of striated muscle tissue
- 20. Muscle attachment site that does not move during contraction
