For muscles to contract there needs to be an adequate supply of ATP within the cell. ATP is generated in part by a supply of glucose and oxidative phosphorylation. An inadequate supply of blood will not provide enough oxygen to keep up with the energy demands of contraction.
The uterus is a muscle. During menses it contracts to expel menstrual blood. This is a mild from of the contraction it does to push out a baby. The contraction can press against a blood vessel and cut off the blood supply. This pinching off of the blood supply causes the cramping.

The uterus is a muscle. During menses it contracts to expel the uterine lining and menstrual blood. This is a mild from of the contraction it does to push out a baby. The contraction can press against a blood vessel and cut off the blood supply. This pinching off of the blood supply causes the cramping.Answer 2:I believe it's because of the shedding of the uterus lining.
Decreased blood supply in the muscle can cause anoxia then paralysis.
Muscle and Nervous tissue have the highest blood supply while connective is generally good blood supply and epithelium has no direct blood supply
A skeletal muscle's blood supply is generally best described as?
Angiospasm is sudden contraction of a blood vessel. In contrast, vasoconstriction is the normal process of contraction of a blood vessel.VasoconstrictionAngiospasm
Contraction of smooth muscle in arterioles would lead to vasoconstriction, which would increase resistance to blood flow and subsequently increase blood pressure. Conversely, relaxation of smooth muscle in arterioles (vasodilation) would decrease resistance and lower blood pressure.
The heart muscle is supplied by blood vessels called coronaries.
Yes.
Coronary arteries
The direction of the wave of contraction in the heart is important because it decides where the blood reflux will take place. The blood reflux could take place in the atria, or the blood from the heart could be ejected into the pulmonary artery or aorta.
