Chapter 45, Problem 5TY

The function of ATP during muscle contraction is to

  1. a. cause an allosteric change in myosin so it detaches from actin.
  2. b. provide the energy necessary for the movement of the cross-bridge.
  3. c. expose the myosin-binding sites on the thin filaments.
  4. d. do all of the above.
  5. e. do a and b only.

The function of Ca2+ in skeletal muscle contraction is toa. cause an allosteric change in myosin so it detaches from actin.b. provide the energy necessary for the movement of the cross-bridge.c. expose the myosin-binding sites on the thin filaments.d. bind to tropomyosin.e. do a and c only.
The functions of tropomyosin in skeletal muscle include                 A. releasing calcium ions after initiation of contraction.                 B. generating ATP which it passes to the contractile mechanism.                 C. binding to myosin during contraction.                 D. acting as a relaxing protein at rest by covering up the sites where myosin binds to actin.                 E. sliding on actin to produce shortening.
