Anchors muscle to bone and other muscles tendon
Tendons are usually_____ round
Flat sheet like tendon Aponeurosis
Tendons are made of fibrous connective tissue
Tendons are a _____of deep fascia that cover muscle continuation
Tendons merge with _____to anchor to bone Periosteum
Where the muscle originate Origin
The origin is usually the more____of the 2 ends Stationary
The origin is usually the _____end Proximal
Opposite end or the origin Insertion
Insertion is usually across a ___from the origin joint

Initiates the signal to the muscle in the premotor and motor areas of the cortex Frontal lobe
Coordinates movement cerebellum
Sensation of the muscles, conscious input parietal lobes
Subconscious input Cerebellum
Slight contraction of muscle that is present most of the time muscle tone
Muscle tone changes with____ position
Heat production from normal muscle metabolism Thermogenesis
