Definitions:

Tension

The state of being stretched tight, often leading to stress or strain; in physics, it is the force that pulls materials apart.

Myosin Myofilaments

Protein filaments in muscle cells responsible for the contraction and generation of force.

G-Actin

G-Actin (Globular Actin) is a monomeric form of actin that polymerizes to form F-actin filaments, crucial for muscle contraction and cell mobility.

Cross-Bridges

Molecular links between actin and myosin filaments in muscle fibers that are responsible for muscle contraction.
