During the latent period of a skeletal muscle twitch,  there is an apparent lack of muscle activity. Describe the electrical and chemical changes that occur in the muscle durong this period.

That does not really answer the question, hence why I posted it again. It is asking to describe the chemical and electrical changes that occur during the latent period, not to just say that it is a chemical action.
And by the way, how is it a yes or no question, considering that I posted the exact same question?

Do these statements help?

The events of the latent period include the events of excitation contraction coupling, most notably the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

The latent period will increase, the shortening velocity will decrease, the distance will decrease, and the contraction duration will decrease.
