16. Epiphyseal plate - ANS ✓Connecting diaphysis to the
epiphysis
17. Arthrokinematics - ANS ✓Joint motion
18. Synovial joints - ANS ✓Joints held together by a joint capsule
and ligaments.. Most associated with movement in the body
19. Ligament - ANS ✓Primary connective tissue that connects
bone together and provides stability
20. Epimysium - ANS ✓A layer of connective tissue that is
underneath the fascia and surrounds the muscle
21. Perimysium - ANS ✓the corrective tissue that surrounds the
fascicles
22. Endomysium - ANS ✓The deepest layer of connective tissue
that surrounds individual muscle fibers.
23. Tendon - ANS ✓Connective tissues that attach muscle to bone
and provide an anchor for muscles to produce force.
24. Sacomere - ANS ✓functional nut of muscle that produces
muscular contraction and consists of repeating sections of actin and
myosin

generated by neural stimulation

NASM
26. Motor Unit - ANS ✓A motor neuron and all of the muscle
fibers it innervates
27. Neurotransmitters - ANS ✓Chemical messengers that cross
the neuromuscular junction (synapse) to transmit electrical impulses
from the nerve to the muscle
28. Type 1 Muscle Fibers - ANS ✓slow-twitch, smaller and slower
to produce maximal tension, more resistant to fatigue.
29. Type 2 Muscle Fibers - ANS ✓fast-twitch, larger in size, quick
to produce maximal tension and fatigue more quickly
30. Agonist Muscle - ANS ✓The muscle most responsible for
movement
31. Synergist muscle - ANS ✓muscle that assists a prime mover
32. Stabilizer muscle - ANS ✓supports and stabilizes the muscles
during movement
33. Antagonist Muscle - ANS ✓muscle that performs opposite
action of the prime mover
34. Endocrine System - ANS ✓Glands secrete hormones that
regulate processes such as growth, reproduction, and nutrient use
(metabolism) by body cells.
