Question

Increases in the amount of cytoplasmic calcium required to initiate a muscle contraction are mediated by the coupling between a ________ on the T tubule and a ________ on the membrane of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Dihydropyridine receptor

2) Rynodine receptor

Explanation:

Rynodine receptor: It is a category of interacellular channels of calcium with different forms like neurons and muscles found in animal tissues.

Dihydropyridine receptor: they are present in muscle tissues and are able to sense voltage in skeleton muscles thus can increase or control the release of calcium.
