Sequence the following events that occur during muscle contraction according to the sliding filament theory:

ATP hydrolysis by the myosin head
- - -

Cross-bridge formation between actin and myosin
- -

Calcium binds to troponin, exposing the active sites on actin
- (E)- - -

Signal from CNS reaches the neuromuscular junction
(E) Release of neurotransmitter (Acetylcholine) Choose the correct sequence of events from the options given below: -(E)- -(E)- - (E)- -

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct answer is:

NOT AVAILABLE

The sequence starts with a neural signal from the CNS reaching the neuromuscular junction, followed by the release of Acetylcholine. This triggers a series of events leading to the exposure of active sites on actin through calcium binding to troponin. Subsequently, ATP is hydrolyzed by the myosin head facilitating the cross-bridge formation with actin.
