The muscle contracts and shortens and the insertion end moves toward the point of origin. This sentence describes?
Essentially the second half of your question is what happens when a muscle contracts on a larger scale. On a much smaller scale, the contraction of muscle is caused by myosin proteins pulling themselves along the surface of an actin protein, which shortens the muscle. Muscles pull the bone that they are attached to at their point of insertion towards their point of origin.
Is it true The more a muscle shortens during a contraction then the greater the power of the muscle?
