Across
  1. 3. the connective tissue membrane that wraps around the skeletal muscle and connects to the tendon
  2. 5. the outermost tissue that wraps around the whole skeletal muscle to support and protect the muscle itself
  3. 7. multiple muscle fibers that are bunched together
  4. 9. a piece of tissue that connects muscle to bone
  5. 10. the membrane that surrounds each fascicle and acts as a protective layer
Down
  1. 1. this type of muscle is responsible for muscle movements
  2. 2. a thick filament within the skeletal muscle that pulls on another filament in order for the muscle to contract
  3. 4. individual fibers that surround the myosin and actin filaments, aids in muscle contraction
  4. 6. this type of tissue is responsible for the support and protection of the skeletal muscle
  5. 7. long multinucleated muscle cells that contract and expand in order for the muscle to move
  6. 8. a thin filament within the skeletal muscle that contracts in order for the muscle to contract
  7. 11. the membrane that surrounds individual muscle fibers for protection
