Indicаte whether eаch оf the fоllоwing stаtements regarding skeletal muscle contraction is likely to be true or false. After receiving a stimulating signal from a motor neuron, an action potential is generated and propagated across the plasma membrane of the muscle cell. This causes an influx of Ca2+ into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, triggering a muscle contraction. [1] When the cytoplasmic [Ca2+] increases, a change in the conformation of troponin leads to changes in tropomyosin such that it blocks the binding of myosin heads to the actin filament. [2] During muscle contraction, the Z discs move closer together as the myosin heads walk toward the minus ends of the actin filaments. [3] The T-tubule membrane in the muscle cell contains voltage-gated calcium channels. [4]
