Title: Why is ATP needed for muscle contraction?
Post by: glisten on Apr 19, 2017
Why is ATP needed for muscle contraction?
A) It causes calcium to bind to troponin.
B) Myosin must contact the actin filament and move to pull it toward the midline of the sarcomere.
C) It causes tropomyosin to slide off the myosin-binding sites of actin.
D) It's needed for calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
