Across
- 2. muscle, a voluntary, striated muscle tissue that connects to bones via tendons.
- 4. the cytoplasm of striated muscle cells
- 8. primary energy currency for all living cells
- 9. decrease in size or wasting away of a body part or tissue
- 14. Phosphate, the main high-energy, phosphate-storage molecule of muscle
- 16. continuous movement of blood throughout the body
- 17. muscle, helps with digestion and nutrient collection
- 22. drive muscle contraction and relaxation
- 23. Reticulum, system of closed sac like membranes involved in the storage of intracellular calcium in striated (skeletal) muscle cells.
- 26. fibres, characterized by a high endurance capacity and a slow contraction speed.
- 28. Fibers, long, cylindrical, multinucleated cells that constitute skeletal muscle tissue, varying in length and diameter
- 29. a fibrous globulin of muscle that can split ATP
- 30. highly organized tissues that convert chemical energy to physical work.
- 31. Cellular Respiration, organisms break down sugars to produce usable energy in the form of ATP
- 32. switch, a fast, sudden muscle movement, like a twitch.
- 34. chemical process by which molecules such as glucose are broken down anaerobically
- 36. tissue that attaches a muscle to other body parts, usually bones.
- 37. Relaxation of a Skeletal Muscle.
- 39. a muscle that helps you inhale and exhale
Down
- 1. the membrane enclosing a striated muscle fiber
- 3. exercise-induced decline in the ability of a muscle to generate force or power.
- 5. muscle, a specialized, involuntary striated muscle tissue found exclusively in the heart wall, responsible for pumping blood through the cardiovascular system
- 6. threadlike contractile proteins
- 7. Period, period between causal action and disease initiation.
- 10. a type of involuntary muscle movement that occurs in your digestive system.
- 11. Atrophy, the increase in size of skeletal muscle fibers.
- 12. a protein found in heart muscle cells that helps them contract.
- 13. Period, your uterus contracts to help expel its lining.
- 15. Period, the final phase of a muscle twitch, occurring after the contraction phase.
- 18. tone, strength training with weight loss.
- 19. a two-stranded alpha-helical, coiled coil protein
- 20. state of balance, and your body regulates its own systems to reach and maintain it.
- 21. repeated twitch contractions where the previous twitch has not relaxed completely
- 24. disease of the nervous system caused by a toxin-producing bacterium.
- 25. Deficit, what causes us to breathe harder and faster during exercise
- 27. fibres, cytoskeletal structural components found in the cells of vertebrates, and many invertebrates.
- 28. A protein in your muscles that helps them get the oxygen they need to keep moving
- 30. Filament Model, states that the sliding of actin past myosin generates muscle tension
- 33. the process in which a muscle becomes or is made shorter and tighter.
- 34. fibres, dominant individuals excel at explosive, heavy, and short-duration activities.
- 35. a cellular protein found especially in microfilaments
- 38. Ions (Ca 2+), positively charged particles formed when calcium atoms lose two electrons.
