what is rigor mortiss and when does it kick in
|
Note that it rigor mortis is a condition where this cycle stops before this step occurs. Rigor mortis happens because after a person dies, they stop making ATP. So no ATP is available to free the myosin from the actin. Therefore, myosin stays attached to actin and muscles become rigid.
