| hamstring muscles | ischial tuberosity |
| Gastrocnemius | distal femur |
| types of muscle | skeletal, smooth, cardiac |
| Muscle fibers | muscle cells |
| skeletal muscle | attach to skeleton |
| striated muscle | skeletal muscle |
| endomysium | surrounds each muscle fiber |
| perimysium | covers fascicle |
| fascicle | many fibers bundled together |
| epimysium | covers entire muscle |
| tendons | attach muscles to bone |
| smooth muscle | no striations, involuntary |
| cardiac muscle | found only in the heart |
| sarcolemma | many oval nuclei beneath the plasma membrane |
| myofibrils | ribbon like organells |
| I bands | actin, light band |
| A band | myosin, dark band |
| sarcomeres | chains of tiny contractile units |
| myofilaments | threadlike protein |
| thick filaments | myosin |
| cross bridges | link thick and thin myofilaments together |
| thin filaments | actin |
| sarcoplasmic reticulum | smooth endoplasmic reticulum |
| motor unit | one neuron and all the muscle cells it stimulates |
| axon | nerve fiber |
| neuromuscular junction | junction with the sarcolemma |
| when a muscle is unable to contract even though it is still being stimulated. | muscle fatigue |
| state of continuous partial contractions | muscle tone |
| flaccid | soft and flabby |
| flexion | angle of joint decreases |
| extension | angle of joint increases |
| rotation | movement around longitudinal axis |
| abduction | moving limb away from body |
| adduction | moving limb towards body |
| supination | turning backwards |
| pronation | turning forwards |
| fascicles are arranged in concentric rings | circular |
| fascicles converge toward a single insertion tendon | convergent |
| neck muscles | move head and shoulder girdle |
| trunk muscles | move vertebral column, ribs, head, arms, abdominal body wall. |
