Excitation-contraction coupling refers to the series of events that begins with the excitation of the sarcolemma in response to stimulation by a neurotransmitter, and results in the release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Hence, option D is the 1st process that starts the excitation-contraction coupling.
I think the answer for Q2 is D but i could be wrong. sorry if i am
Answer:

This is because the leaf would not have tiny oxygen bubbles spread across its base (because the base is where most stomata are) that would help it float on the water.
