Solution

An isovolumetric ventricular contraction is analogous to an isometric skeletal muscle contraction; the muscle develops tension but it does not shorten.

Explanation:

In an isovolumetric ventricular contraction, the ventricles contract with no change in volume because the valves are closed, similar to how an isometric muscle contraction generates tension without changing the length of the muscle.
