Answer:

The hormone oxytocin aids the birth process by stimulating: uterine wall contractions.

Explanation:

Oxytocin is a hormone that is released naturally in the body of women and that intervenes in certain physiological processes, activating behaviors at a mechanical level in specific organs such as the uterus and the breasts.  In the case of the uterus, oxytocin stimulates and maintains the contraction of the smooth muscle of the uterus during labor and delivery, that is, it is responsible for the existence of contractions, which occur during intercourse, due to the distension of the uterus that occurs produced during labor.

madam [21]
I believe that you are supposed to notice that the striations in the contracted muscle fibers are much closer together than the striations in the uncontracted muscle. Therefore, it would appear that somehow the striated parts of the muscle are being pulled closer together somehow. Glycerinated muscle retains the organized structural array of myosin thick filaments and actin thin filaments, actin associated proteins like troponin and tropomyosin which regulate contraction, and the functional capacity for contraction.
