The term that identifies proteins allowing muscles to shorten or lengthen is "contractile proteins." The primary contractile proteins in muscle tissue are actin and myosin, which interact to facilitate muscle contraction and relaxation. During contraction, myosin heads pull on actin filaments, leading to muscle shortening, while relaxation involves the detachment and return of these proteins to their original state.
Skeletal muscle tissue is made of many fibers, which have many sarcomeres with overlapping actin and myosin protein strands. When muscles contract their proteins overlap eachother and shorten the fiber, which then increases height but shortens in length of each fiber.
Muscles contract when sarcomeres shorten. The thin and thick filaments that compose sarcomeres do not shorten; instead, they slide past one another, causing the sarcomere to shorten while the filaments remain the same length.
Muscles stay in better health when they maintain their elasticity. When you exercise they shorten and so stretching them afterwards helps to maintain their elongated length.

When you shorten the wave length, you increase the amplitude.
Yes, this could help.
None actually shorten. The thin and thick filaments that compose sarcomeres do not shorten; instead, they slide past one another, causing the sarcomere to shorten while the filaments remain the same length.
Yes. The length of a shadow is determined by the altitude of the Sun. Therefore shadows shorten then lengthen as each day progresses and, between days, shorten and lengthen as summer comes and passes.
If you shorten the length of the string of a pendulum, the frequency of the pendulum will increase. This is because the period of a pendulum is directly proportional to the square root of its length, so reducing the length will decrease the period and increase the frequency.
The application of muscular force with movement is called muscle contraction. This occurs when muscles generate tension and shorten in length to produce movement such as lifting a weight or running.
