Define muscle contraction
suter [353]

Answer:

Muscle contraction is the activation of tension-generating sites within muscle fibers. In physiology, muscle contraction does not necessarily mean muscle shortening because muscle tension can be produced without changes in muscle length, such as by holding a heavy book or a dumbbell at the same position. The termination of muscle contraction is followed by muscle relaxation, which is a return of the muscle fibers to their low tension-generating state.

What happens if there is too much
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

When too much glucose in the body and it isn't going into the cells, it will be excreted through urine. This happens because the body is trying to get rid of the excess glucose by removing it through the kidneys. This will result in the kidneys filtering out more water, which will then lead to polyuria (excessive urine). It's common in diabetics who are going through/have DKA (Diabetic Ketoacidosis).
