Across
1.The point at which a muscle attaches to that part of the bone which is more proximal or the less movable end of the body part
8.These structures are found by the thousands within each muscle cell and contain the actin and myosin filaments
9.Muscle makes up about 40-45% of our body _________.
11.The inner layer of connective tissue covering skeletal muscle
12.The movement of a body closer to the midline of the body
15.The neurotransmitter which allows a nervous impulse to travel from a nerve to the muscle fiber
17.The condition where a muscle is not contracted or is contracted only slightly and it begins to decrease in size
18.The movement of a body part away from the midline of the body
21.The point at which a muscle attaches to that part of the bone which is more distal or the more movable end of the body part
22.A sudden muscle contraction usually occuring when the nerve supplying the muscle has been irritated
27.The outer layer of connective tissue covering skeletal muscle
28.The muscle tissue type responsible for movement of bones

5.The part of the muscle where about 80% of all muscle strains occur

24.The muscle tissue type found in the digestive system and surrounding arteries
25.When a rapid or prolonged muscle contraction continues to the extreme, this occurs
