Flat sheets of tissue that connect muscle to muscle

Organic macromolecules made of glycerol and fatty acids

Cordlike mass of white fibrous connective tissue that connects

muscle to bone

Rhythmic waves of smooth muscle contraction in the walls of our

digestive organs

Strong stringy fibers found in connective tissue and bone matrix

Connective tissue that stores fat

Protein found in epidermis, hair and nails

Flat epithelial cells

Organic macromolecules made of carbon and hydrogen that store

energy

Organic macromolecules made of long chains of amino acids folded

into tertiary and sometimes quartenary structures

These monomers combine to form nucleic acid macromolecules

Selectively permeable lipid bi-layer that surrounds our cells

This nucleic acid molecule is the only source of energy that living

cells can use.

Uncoiled DNA

When DNA is copied into mRNA strands

Materials move from areas of high concentration to low concentration through cell membranes and into

cells by __________

In muscle tissue, it is the contractile unit.

Sarcomeres joined end to end form these long slender fibers in a

muscle cell

Thick filaments in a sarcomere

Thin filaments in a sarcomere

Stores and releases calcium ions into the muscle fiber to trigger a

contraction

Cell membrane of a muscle cell

Muscle cell

When a sarcomere contracts, the myosin and actin filaments do not

themselves shorten.

A bundle of muscle fibers

Long thin muscle that runs through the thigh – named for the style in

which tailors would sit

Bone material formed by osteocytes lying within trabeculae

Neurotransmitter that motor neurons use to control skeletal

muscles

Central canal of compact bone

Process by which epithelial cells become harder and flatter and move toward the surface of the

skin

Pigment producing epithelial cells. When they become cancerous it is

likely to be fatal.

Cells that typically form the outer covering of organs.

Shorthand method used to note the concentration of hydrogen ions

in a substance

In growing children, you can see this line between the epiphysis and diaphysis of long bones. It is where

growth occurs.

Body system responsible for producing red blood cells

1. Connective tissue2. Muscle tissue3. Epithelial tissue4. ____________

Found at the ends of bones and in an embryo skeleton

Muscle that raises your eyebrows

Trumpet muscle

“winking muscle”

Kissy muscle

The shortest muscle in a group may be called this

A muscle that moves a finger or toe

An involuntary muscle is either a cardiac muscle or this type of muscle.

The longest muscle in a group may have this as part of its name

The stabilizing muscle attachment point (not the one attached to the

bone that moves)

Point where a muscle attaches to the bone that moves

Bones of the wrist

Bones of the ankle

Dense connective tissue that separates a muscle from adjacent

muscles

Smallest cells found in blood tissue – responsible for blood clotting

Heel bone

A type of cell that has no nucleus. There are many of them in red

marrow.
