- 15. where the muscle is attached to an immovable bone
- 16. muscle that oppose or do the reverse of a certain movement

Down
- 2. where the muscle is attached to a movable bone
- 3. muscle fibers bundle together to form
- 4. thin filaments that run the length of each myofibril
- 5. striated muscles are generally attached to bones that contract voluntarily to produce movement
