Energy and muscular contraction.

In this paper, a model of the chemical energy conversion into mechanical energy is presented. According to this model, for each stage, the transfer of the energy is produced in the framework of a polymolecular system composed by a donor molecule, an enzyme and an acceptor molecular couple. The energy is released in the form of two quanta of electronic excitation. The transfer of the energy determines the change of the orbital directions, as well as the ionic constellations previously fixed at the level of the donor molecule and at the level of the acceptor molecular couple. Subsequently, an allosteric modification of the enzyme which connects the donor with the acceptor molecular couple is produced. The conversion of the chemical energy into mechanical energy is explained by means of the ions movement and by the conformational changes of the enzymes involved in the processes of the energy transfer.
