Which of the following statements about excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle is FALSE?
Question options:
a)
The increase in intracellular Calcium stimulates the release of more Calcium through a positive feedback mechanism (Calcium mediated Calcium release)
b)
DHP receptors on the T tubules detect changes in voltage and communicate to ryanodine receptors on the sarcoplasmic reticulum to open calcium channels.
c)
Calcium binds to troponin, causing a shift in tropomyosin, thereby exposing the binding sites on actin for myosin.
d)
An end-plate potential triggers an action potential on the sarcolemma.
e)
Calcium is passively transported out of the cell when the contraction and depolarization subside.
