|
|
Term

Definition
In a muscle that moves a bone, long, rod-like cells, know as skeletal muscle fibers, are bundled together to form the body of the muscle. -Muscles are closely associated with connective tissue. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The tough, fibrous connective tissue. It surrounds individual muscle cells, groups of cells, and the whole muscle which establishes an extremely strong connection between the tendon and muscle. |
|

Definition
Occurs when all of the muscle fibers in a muscle shorten at the same time, causing the muscle to shorten in its overall length. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The fascia of a muscle is continuous with a tendon; contraction of the muscle causes the muscle to pull on the tendon, and the tendon then pulls on the bone to which it is attached. -Most body movements involve the contractions of several muscles at once. |
