actin
__________ are the thick fibers in sarcomeres
myosin
)___________– regular dense connective tissue that fuses with periosteum & muscle
tendons
_____________ cover tendons
connective tissue sheaths
___________– strap and fusiform muscles
parallel fibers
________________ – pennate muscles
angled fibers
Parallel muscle have
less force, greater distance
Angled fibers have
more muscle fibers thus more force
