Repetition of the contraction cycle requires the presence of an adequate number of Ca2+ ions.
Muscle contraction is triggered by Ca2+ ions, Ca2+ ions is released by sarcoplasmic reticulum and activate troponin then muscle contraction initiated.
Answer - B. requires the presence of an adequate number of Ca2+ ions

How does facilitated diffusion differ from simple diffusion? Facilitated diffusion requires ATP Facilitated diffusion requires a solute-specific protein carrier Facilitated diffusion transports solute against its’ concentration gradient Which of the following is TRUE about primary active cell membrane transport? It is a form of transport that requires a protein “pump” It is a form of transport that transports ions and/or solute against their concentration gradient It is a transport mechanism that requires energy released from the splitting of ATP by...
