Calcium is a necessary part of human biochemistry, and no living person has no calcium ions in their body.
Rigor Mortis Sets In was created in 1972-11.
Do not commence CPR if signs of rigor mortis or lividity are present.
Mice are warm blooded mammals like humans. After death their muscles are affected by rigor mortis in the same way.

They won't spring up to a sitting position from laying flat, but if they were sitting while rigor mortis was setting, they will be fixed in that position, until mortis relaxes or someone forces them flat.
Temperature does effect rigor mortis. Low temperatures slow rigor mortis and it is accelerated by high temperatures.
Rigor mortis begins between three and four hours after someone has died. It usually begins in the neck, jaw, and eyelids.

The duration of Rigor Mortis - radio - is 1800.0 seconds.
Rigor mortis is a build up of released lactic acid. Rigor mortis starts a few hours after you die, and causes your muscles to contract, or shorten, which is their natural state. After about 12 hours Rigor mortis begins to dissipate.

Rigor Mortis - radio - was created on 2003-06-12.
Rigor Mortis - radio - ended on 2006-03-02.
Rigor mortis occurs because the muscles in the corpse contract. This contraction occurs because the calcium ions that are stored in the muscles diffuses and causes the myosin and actin proteins to activate, but not release.
Short answer; yes.All muscles undergo rigor mortis at some time after death.
That is the correct spelling for "rigor mortis" -- a Latin phrase applied to the stiffening of muscle tissues after death.
