What is the role of Ca2+ in the control of muscle contraction? a. It causes depolarization of the T-tubule system. b. It binds to tropomyosin and breaks actin-myosin cross-bridges. c. It changes the conformation of troponin, which ultimately results in myosin-binding sites being exposed. d. It changes the conformation of myosin heads, causing actin and myosin filaments to slide past each other. e. It blocks the ATP-binding site on myosin heads, enabling muscles to relax.

What is the primary role of Ca2+ during skeletal muscle contraction? A. It binds to troponin to reveal myosin binding sites B. It binds to myosin to cause the ratcheting motion of the heads C. It forms a cross-bridge between F-actin filaments and myosin D. It depolarizes the membrane of presynaptic neurons in motor end plates

What is excitation-contraction coupling? Multiple Choice A. The events that link the action potential of the sarcolemma to the activation of the myofilament contraction B. The events that link the action potential in the neuron to the diffusion of ACh across the synaptic cleft C. The events that link the calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum to the change in troponin structure D. The events that link rigor formation to the hydrolysis of ATP
