no it gets smaller and to make it stop you need some potassium so eat a banana
It becomes shorter.
A muscle becomes shorter when it contracts.
When the muscle contracts, it gets shorter. When it relaxes, it gets longer.
relaxes
Muscle fiber generates tension through the action of actin and myosin cross-bridge cycling. While under tension, the muscle may lengthen, shorten or remain the same. Although the term 'contraction' implies shortening, when referring to the muscular system, it means muscle fibers generating tension with the help of motor neurons
"When smooth muscle contracts, the cavity of an organ alternately becomes smaller or enlarges so that substances are propelled through the organ along a specific pathway"Smooth muscle
answer: diaphragm at the bottom of the chest cavity is a muscle called the diaphragm. when the diapragm contracts, the chest cavity becomes larger.
When a muscle contracts, it shortens in length.
A muscle that contracts shortens whereas a muscle that relaxes lengthens.
Yes, when a muscle contracts, it becomes shorter and thicker. This occurs because the muscle fibers, made up of actin and myosin filaments, slide past each other, causing the overall length of the muscle to decrease while increasing its girth. This process allows the muscle to generate force and perform movements.
When a muscle contracts, it pulls with a force generated by the muscle fibers contracting and shortening.
When one muscle in a pair contracts the other expands.
