Extensions of muscle cells that attach to cuticle.

Outer covering that muscles attach to in some animals.

Internal support structure like bones within an organism.

Part of the skeleton including skull, vertebral column, and ribcage.

Includes limb bones and pelvis for movement.

Dense outer layer of bone with no large spaces.

Inner bone layer with larger spaces filled with marrow.

Soft tissue inside bones that produces blood cells.

Muscles arranged in pairs that work oppositely around joints.

Muscle attachment close to the joint, favoring speed in movement.

Muscle attachment further from the joint, favoring strength in movement.

The model explaining how muscle contraction occurs through the sliding of actin and myosin filaments.

A structure where muscles surround a fluid-filled compartment, changing shape during muscle contraction.

The process of shedding the exoskeleton to allow for growth in certain animals such as arthropods.

The organization of muscle fibers that allow for contraction and movement in animals.

The study of how muscles function, including contraction and relaxation.

Muscle action against bones acts like levers, enhancing movement efficiency.

The basic functional units of muscle fibers responsible for contraction.

The regulation of calcium ion concentrations in blood and extracellular fluids for physiological functions.

Chemical messengers released by neurons to transmit signals across synapses.

Hormonal processes that regulate bodily functions by inhibiting or promoting actions based on feedback.

Muscle tissue with a striped appearance, including skeletal and cardiac muscles, under voluntary control.

Involuntary muscle tissue that lacks striations; found in walls of organs and blood vessels.

Striated muscle tissue composed of elongated muscle fibers, functioning to facilitate movement.

Cells in muscle tissue responsible for contraction and movement, based on actin and myosin interaction.

Muscle contraction initiated by the muscle itself, typical of cardiac and smooth muscle.

Elongated, cylindrical cells that make up skeletal muscles, formed from myoblasts.

Embryonic cells that fuse to form muscle fibers with multiple nuclei.

Calcium ions play a crucial role in muscle contraction and signaling processes in the body.

Tissue that surrounds and supports muscle fibers, merging with tendons.

Nerve cells that stimulate muscle contractions through signals from the somatic nervous system.

The process of a muscle shortening to generate force and movement.
