Postmortem change resulting in the stiffening of muscles due to chemical changes in their myofibrils. Rigor mortis helps in estimating the time since death.

# data[].attributes.body
The ability to spontaneously depolarize and generate an action potential.

# data[].attributes.body
The ability to stretch a muscle to reach its full range of movement without restriction.

# data[].attributes.body
The ability to respond to a stimulus, which may be delivered from a motor neuron or a hormone

# data[].attributes.body
The ability of a muscle to be stretched. For instance, when our elbow flexes, the elbow extensor muscles must extend in order to allow flexion to occur.

# data[].attributes.body
The ability of muscle cells to shorten by allowing muscle tissue to pull on its attachment points . (muscles can only pull, never push)

# data[].attributes.body
Calcium affects muscles by regulating contractions. This includes regulating the heart beating because the heart is a muscle that pumps blood. Calcium is released when a nerve stimulates a muscle. Calcium also plays a role in the complex process of blood coagulation

# data[].attributes.body
ATP-dependent superfamily of motor proteins best known for their roles in muscle contraction and in a wide range of other motility processes.

# data[].attributes.body
Voluntary muscles attached to bones by tendons that produce all the movements of body parts in relation to each other.

# data[].attributes.body
A protein that forms (together with myosin) the contractile filaments of muscle cells, and is also involved in motion in other types of cell.

# data[].attributes.body
This theory explains the mechanism of muscle contraction based on muscle proteins that slide past each other to generate movement. The sliding filament theory is a widely accepted explanation of the mechanism that underlies muscle contraction.

# data[].attributes.body
Type of muscle tissue that forms the heart which contracts and releases involuntarily and is responsible for keeping the heart pumping blood around the body

# data[].attributes.body
Also called involuntary muscle, muscle that shows no cross stripes under microscopic magnification. It consists of narrow spindle-shaped cells with a single, centrally located nucleus.

# data[].attributes.body
Condition marked by intermittent muscular spasms, caused by malfunction of the parathyroid glands and a consequent deficiency of calcium.

# data[].attributes.body
Infection caused by bacteria called Clostridium tetani. When the bacteria invade the body, they produce a poison (toxin) that causes painful muscle contractions.

# data[].attributes.body
Symptom that decreases your muscles' ability to perform over time. It can be associated with a state of exhaustion, often following strenuous activity or exercise.

# data[].attributes.body
Clonic spasms refer to a quick alternating involuntary muscular contraction. Tonic spasms are rigid muscle contractions that last a period of time.

# data[].attributes.body
Sudden involuntary contraction of a muscle, a group of muscles, or a hollow organ such as the bladder.

# data[].attributes.body
-It allows movement
-It provides stability
-It helps keep the body in posture
-It protects organs
-It helps other systems do their job

# data[].attributes.body
Thin casing of connective tissue that surrounds and holds every organ, blood vessel, bone, nerve fiber and muscle in place.

# data[].attributes.body
Connective tissues that transmit the force of muscle contraction to the bones.
