Across
- 2. stored in the liver and in skeletal muscle
- 3. mutated in muscular dystrophy
- 5. at the end of motor neurons
- 6. point where neuron meets the muscle fiber
- 11. organized unit of contraction
- 12. stimulates skeletal muscle to contract
- 13. neurotransmitter found in the axon of motor neurons, stored in vesicles
- 14. increase in muscle size, not cell number!
- 15. calcium binding site
Down
- 1. made of titan, found at Z discs
- 4. main component of thick filament
- 7. connects brain/spinal cord to the muscle fibers
- 8. main component of thin filament
- 9. covers the binding site on actin
- 10. this happens when a nerve is cut and the muscle becomes paralyzed overtime
- 11. space between neuron and muscle fiber
