Across
- 3. Consisting of spindle-shaped, nonstriated muscle cells
- 5. Respiration in which oxygen is consumed and glucose is broken down entirely
- 6. The movable attachment of a muscle as opposed to its origin
- 8. Muscle composed of cylindrical multinucleate cells with obvious striations
- 10. A process in which glucose is broken down in the absence of oxygen
- 13. The connective tissue enveloping bundles of muscle fibers
- 15. Inability of a muscle to contract even while be stimulated
- 16. The smallest contractile unit of muscle
- 18. Chemical released by neurons that bind to receptors of neurons, and stimulate them
Down
- 1. Contractile organelles found in the cytoplasm of muscle cells
- 2. A motor neuron and all the muscle cells it supplies
- 4. Organ system consisting of skeletal muscles and their connective tissue attachments
- 7. Specialized muscle of the heart with striations
- 9. The thin connective tissue surrounding each muscle cell
- 11. The muscle attachment that is not movable or is less moveable than the intersection
- 12. Contractile proteins found in muscle; makes up the thick filaments
- 14. Sustained partial contraction of a muscle in response to stretch receptor inputs
- 17. Contractile proteins found in muscle; makes up the thin filaments
