The electrical signal sets off a series of events that lead to crossbridge cycling between myosin and actin, which generates force.", "Let's take a look at what occurs within a skeletal muscle, from excitation to contraction to relaxation 1 : An electrical signal (action potential) travels down a nerve cell, causing it to release a chemical message (neurotransmitter) into a small gap between the nerve cell and muscle cell.", "A muscle fiber contraction is a complex interaction of organelles and molecules in which myosin binds to actin and exerts a pulling action.", "As you can see, muscle contraction is regulated by the level of calcium ions in the cytoplasm. In skeletal muscle, calcium ions work at the level of actin (actin-regulated contraction). They move the troponin-tropomyosin complex off the binding sites, allowing actin and myosin to interact.", "In order for a skeletal muscle contraction to occur; 1. There must be a neural stimulus. 2. There must be calcium in the muscle cells. 3. ATP must be available for energy. So, a few things can stop a contraction; 1. Energy system fatigue: There is no more ATP left in the muscle cell so it can’t keep contracting.", "♦ The electrical action potential signal in a muscle cell to initiate a contraction-involves complex movement of sodium and calcium ions into and potassium ions out of the muscle cell to propogate an action potential and depolarize the cell.", "(8) The calcium ions result in movement of troponin and tropomyosin on their thin filaments, and this enables the myosin molecule heads to “grab and swivel” their way along the thin filament. This is the driving force of muscle contraction.", "(2) A motor neuron in the ventral horn of the spinal cord is activated, and an action potential passes outward in a ventral root of the spinal cord.
