| The Sartorius muscle, a thin straplike muscle would have muscle fascicles arranged in | parallel |
| The biceps brachii has this fascicle arrangement, which maximizes the range of motion possible. | parallel |
| The common tendon of the gastrocnemius and soleus is called the | calcaneal tendon |
| A muscle with fascicles that insert into only one side of the tendon is categorized as | unipennate |
| The fibrous connective tissue that surrounds the entire muscle and is outside the epimysium and tendon is called the | fascia |
| The continuous low level of sustained contraction maintained by all skeletal muscles is muscle | tone |
| A muscle with fascicles that insert into the tendon from both sides is categorized as | bipennate |
| Muscles that move the forearm include | brachioradialis, pronator teres, biceps brachii |
| The long axes of the fascicles run parallel to the long axis of the muscle is a description of this type of fascicle arrangement. | parallel |
