Place the events of muscle contraction in the correct order. |
|||||||||||
|
1. Electrical signal from motor neuron causes the release of Ach.
2. Ach binds to the nicotinic receptor at neuromuscular junction causing an electrical signal to develop along the muscle membrane.
3. The signal travels into the muscle cell along the T tubules.
4. The electrical signal causes the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium.
5.calcium binds to the thin filament and allows myosin, actin, ATP to form cross-bridges.
6. Myosin head rotates and moves the actin towards the centre of the sarcomere.
7. Sarcomere shortens.
8.muscle relaxes.
9.calcium pumped in the endoplasmic reticulum.
