5.contract

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:12:14 UTC

muscle fibers stimulated by nerves, become short and thick which causes movement.

6.contractibility

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:14:28 UTC

muscle fibers that are stimulated by nerves contract.

7.contracture

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:19:52 UTC

bending backward or being the foot toward the knee

9.elasticity

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:32:14 UTC

10.excitability

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:35:01 UTC

irritability the ability to respond to a stimulus such as nerve impulse.

11. extensibility

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:36:15 UTC

ability to be stretched.

12.extension

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:37:41 UTC

13.fascia

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:39:35 UTC

a tough sheet like membrane.

14.flexion

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:41:36 UTC

a decreasing angle between two bones or a bending body part

15.insertion

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:43:34 UTC

the end that moves when a muscle contracts

16.involuntary

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:45:41 UTC

function without conscious thought or control.

17.muscle tone

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:49:48 UTC

state of partial contraction

18.muscular system

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:51:20 UTC

a bundle of muscles held together by connective tissues.

19.origin

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:53:19 UTC

the end that doesnt move.

20.plantar flexion

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:53:46 UTC

turning a body part downward.

22.rotation

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:57:05 UTC

turning a body poart around its own axis

23.skeletal muscle

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:57:43 UTC

attached to the bones causes body movement

24.supination

th14221 — 2024-02-05 14:58:23 UTC
