contraction for movement
skeletal muscle ; movement
skeletal muscle is voluntary
smooth muscle; location
hollow organs, BV walls, eyes, skin, ducts

cardiac muscle is involuntary
epimysium
connective tissue sheath
perimysium
connective tissue sheath surrounding fascile
fascicle
10-100 muscle fibers (axons) bundled together
endomysium
thin layer of ecm surrounding fibers
tendon
attach muscle to bone
muscle fiber
long thin shaped cells
sarcolemma
plasma membrane of muscle fiber
sarcoplasm
cytoplasm of muscle fiber
transverse tubules
hollow inward extensions of sarcolemma surrounding myofibrils, filled ecf
sarcoplasmic reticulum
specialized smooth endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle fiber storing calcium ions
terminal cisternae
enlarged regions of sacroplasmic reticulum where it contatcs t tubules
triad
a t tubule and 2 adjascent terminal cisternae in fiber
