Solution

The correct answer is physiological contracture; rigor mortis.

Step by step explanation:

  1. The first blank refers to a condition where muscles become incapable of relaxing or contracting due to extreme muscular fatigue. This condition is known as physiological contracture.

  2. The second blank refers to a state of muscle rigidity that occurs several hours after death, when ATP levels decline. This is known as rigor mortis.

So, the completed sentence reads: "As a result of extreme muscular fatigue, muscles can become incapable of relaxing or contracting, which is called physiological contracture. Similarly, several hours after death, ATP levels decline, causing muscle rigidity, known as rigor mortis."
