| Term | diaphragm contraction | ID (Ontology) | GO:0002086 (Gene Ontology) |
| Definition | A process in which force is generated within involuntary skeletal muscle tissue, resulting in a change in muscle geometry. This process occurs in the diaphragm. Force generation involves a chemo-mechanical energy conversion step that is carried out by the actin/myosin complex activity, which generates force through ATP hydrolysis. The diaphragm is a striated muscle that is necessary for the process of respiratory gaseous exchange.[ PubMed:12458206 ] | ||
