Cytosol: Fluid between cells
Tendons: Skeletal muscles are attached to bones by tendons
Mitochondria: Sites of ATP synthesis
Epimusium: The connective tissues surrounding the entire muslce
Myofibrils: Contractile units within muscle cells
Fascicles: Bundles of muscle cells
Myofibril: Contains contractile filament within the skeletal muscle cell
Perimysium: Connective tissue surrounding the fascicles
A Bands: Dark areas that correspond to the presence of thick filaments
Triad: A roup of one T tubule lying between two adjacent terminal cisternae
I Bands: Light areas that contain only thin filaments
Terminal Cisternae: Sac-like regions of SR that contain the calcium ions.
H Zone: Found in the middle of each A band.
T Tubules: Invaginations of the sarcolemma which project deep into the cell
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR) - Interconnecting tubules of endoplasmic reticulum that surrond the myofibril
M Line: Protein fibers that connect to thick filaments
Sarcolemma: Plasma membrane of a muscle cell
Sarcomere: The region of the myofibril between two Z Lines
Nucleus: Contains the genetic material
