  1. 3. globular contractile protein that interacts with myosin for muscle contraction
  2. 5. muscle tissue muscle tissue found only in the heart; cardiac contractions pump blood throughout the body and maintain blood pressure
  3. 6. long cylindrical structures that lie parallel to the muscle fiber
  4. 10. bones are eight bones that form the cranial cavity, which encloses the brain and serves as an attachment site for the muscles of the head and neck.
  5. 11. muscle tissue occurs in the walls of hollow organs such as the intestines, stomach, and urinary bladder, and around passages such as the respiratory tract and blood vessels
  6. 12. bones form the face, provide cavities for the sense organs (eyes, mouth, and nose), protect the entrances to the digestive and respiratory tracts, and serve as attachment points for facial muscles.
  7. 14. (AChE) enzyme that breaks down ACh into acetyl and choline
  8. 16. muscle tissue forms skeletal muscles, which attach to bones and control locomotion and any movement that can be consciously controlled
  9. 17. small structures that make up myofibrils
  10. 19. contractile protein that interacts with actin for muscle contraction

  1. 1. skeleton is a skeleton formed by a fluid-filled compartment within the body, called the coelom.
  2. 2. plasma membrane of a skeletal muscle fiber
  3. 4. is the process of deposition of mineral salts on the collagen fiber matrix that crystallizes and hardens the tissue.
  4. 7. is a connective tissue that constitutes the endoskeleton. It contains specialized cells and a matrix of mineral salts and collagen fibers.
  5. 8. functional unit of skeletal muscle
  6. 9. a skeleton that consists of hard, mineralized structures located within the soft tissue of organisms
  7. 13. an external skeleton that consists of a hard encasement on the surface of an organism.
  8. 15. ossicles the middle ear transmit sounds from the air as vibrations to the fluid-filled cochlea
  9. 18. skeleton forms the central axis of the body and includes the bones of the skull, ossicles of the middle ear, hyoid bone of the throat, vertebral column, and the thoracic cage.
