Which of the following is NOT a mechanism to remove calcium from the cytoplasm of smooth muscle cells? Select one: a. a calcium-ATPase in the membrane of the sarcoplasmic reticulum b. calcium-sodium transporter in the sarcolemma c. IP3-gated calcium channels in the sarcoplasmic reticulum d. calcium-ATPase pump in the sarcolemma

Excitation-Contraction Coupling: During the action potential in a cardiac contractile cell: a) Calcium ions enter the cell through voltage-gated calcium channels and bind to Ryanodine receptor-channels. b) Calcium ions enter the sarcoplasm through Ryanodine receptor-channels and bind to troponin. c) Calcium is pumped out of the cell into the ECF by primary active transport. d) Both a) and b) are correct, and c) is incorrect. e) a), b), and c) are all correct.

72. Which of the following statements about excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle is not true? PICK ONE OF THE FOLLOWING A. The bond of Ach with its nicotinic receptor causes the influx of K into the muscle fiber, originating an action potential . B. Ca binds to troponin, causing a shift in tropomyosin, thereby exposing the binding sites on actin for myosin. C. The T tubules detect and conduct the action potential deep in the muscle fiber, causing the SR to release Ca in the sarcoplasm. D. An end-plate potential triggers an action potential on the sarcolemma. E. Ca have to be reabsorbed into the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum, simultaneously with Ach is removed from the cleft for relaxation of the muscle.
