striated, involuntary muscles found

tough, flexible tissue that joins vertebrae and makes up all or part of the vertebrate exoskeleton

skin layer below the epidermis that contains blood vessels, nerves, oil and sweat glands, and other structures

outer, thinnest skin layer that constantly produces new cells to replace the dead cells rubbed off of its surface

muscle, such as heart muscle, that cannot be consciously controlled

any place where two or more bones come together; can be movable or immovable

tough band of tissue that holds bones together at the joint

pigment produced by the epidermis that protects skin from sun damage and gives skin and eyes their color

organ that can relax, contract, and provide the force to move bone and body parts
