Muscles contraction will occur in all of the following except when action potential triggers the sequestering of Ca+ to the medial element of the SR from sarcoplasm when the sarcomeres are shortened when action potential triggers the release of Ca+ from the terminal cistern of the SR to sarcoplasm when a cross bridge cycle is actives

Step 1
Step 1: When action potential triggers the sequestering of Ca+ to the medial element of the SR from sarcoplasm, this is a step that prepares the muscle for contraction by storing calcium in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Show more…

Which one does NOT happen during the latent period of muscle contraction? A. Depolarization of the muscle B. Release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum C. Attachment of calcium ions to troponin D. Release of acetylcholine in the neuromuscular junction

Place the following events of muscle contraction in the correct sequence: i. Sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium ions ii. Z lines slide closer together iii. A postsynaptic muscle cell is depolarized, triggering an action potential iv. Calcium concentrations decrease, and tropomyosin-troponin complex reforms over the myosin binding sites

For muscles to contract, a specific sequence of events must occur: 1. Release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) into the synaptic cleft 2. Initiation and conduction of action potentials along the nerve 3. Acetylcholine (ACh) binds to receptors on the motor endplate 4. Depolarization of the muscle cell membrane 5. Crossbridge cycling (requires the presence of ATP and Ca2+) 6. Release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
