Across
  1. 4. tissue composed of fibers that can contract, causing movement of an organ or part of the body
  2. 13. Respiration that requires oxygen
  3. 14. Muscles that work in cooperation with the prime mover to stabilize movement
  4. 16. muscle that opposes or reverses a prime mover
  5. 17. Connective tissue surrounding a fascicle
  6. 19. The muscle with the major responsibility for a certain movement
  7. 20. long slender skeletal muscle cells
  8. 22. Thin filament of protein found in muscles
  9. 23. Involuntary muscle found inside many internal organs of the body
  10. 24. thicker, middle region of muscle between origin and insertion
  11. 25. contractile organelles found in the cytoplasm of muscle cells; made of actin & myosin myofilaments
Down
  1. 1. Connects muscle to bone
  2. 2. A dark thin protein band to which actin filaments are attached in a striated muscle fiber, marking the boundaries between adjacent sarcomeres.
  3. 3. The contractile proteins, actin and myosin, of muscle cells
  4. 5. Contractile unit of muscle
  5. 6. Involuntary muscle tissue found only in the heart.
  6. 7. The contractile protein that makes up the thick filaments of muscle fibers
  7. 8. The attachment of a muscle tendon to a moveable bone or the end opposite the origin
  8. 9. bundle of muscle fibers surrounded by perimysium
  9. 10. a sheath of fibrous elastic tissue surrounding an entire muscle.
  10. 11. attachment of a muscle that remains relatively fixed during muscular contraction
  11. 12. main energy source that cells use for most of their work
  12. 15. A muscle that is attached to the bones of the skeleton and provides the force that moves the bones.
  13. 18. middle of sarcomere, where myosin is anchored
  14. 21. connective tissue that surrounds individual muscle fibers
