Answer:

Isometric

Explanation:

Isometric contraction may be defined as the type of contraction that produces the muscle tension. No change in the angle of the skeletal joint is noticed in the isometric contraction.

The sarcomere shortens during the muscle contraction this causes the increase in the muscle tension of the muscle. The length of the muscle do not change in the isometric contraction. The isometric contraction is important for maintaining posture.

The main features of the solar system:

The Sun is our nearest star.

The planets orbit the Sun.

The time taken to orbit the Sun increases with distance from the Sun.

Gravity keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun and the moons in orbit around their planets.

From the Sun, the order of the planets is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. You might need to be able to recall this in the exam.

The planets go around the Sun in slightly squashed circular elliptical orbits.

Pluto is classified as a dwarf planet or planetoid. It has a highly elliptical or eccentric orbit.

Main facts
