What is needed for the myosin head to attach to the binding site on the actin molecule?

Biology

Vesnalui [34]4 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

The muscle contraction occurs as a result of the sliding of the myofilaments made up of thin actin filaments and thick myosin filaments. The actin contains a binding site for the myosin which is covered with the tropomyosin-troponin complex proteins.  

The troponin contains a binding site for the "calcium" which is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in response to the nerve signals. The calcium binds the troponin and causes conformation changes in tropomyosin which exposes the myosin-binding sites to bind myosin. The myosin binds and forms cross-bridge and cause muscle contraction.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Good afternoon everyone Umm What is refraction of light hope it's easy good day ✌️​
jeyben [28]
Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows.

Here you go, and i hope you have a good day too :)
