Muscle cramps are caused when the muscle takes longer than normal to relax after a contraction. During contraction, the myosin heads attach on their binding sites on the actin filament and pulls on the filament hence shortening the sarcomeres. For the myosin head to release its binding site on the actin filament, ATP attaches to an active site on the myosin and is hydrolyzed to ADP and Pi. This causes relaxation after a contraction cycle. Cramps, therefore, may be due to depletion of ATP molecule in the muscles cells.
Another reason for cramps may be a high amount of calcium in the muscles that bind to troponin on the actin filaments. This exposes the myosin binding sites longer hence promotes the formation of cross-bridge even when the contraction of the muscle is not intended anymore.

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is A) Circulatory, immune.
Circulatory system also called cardiovascular system is a vast network of organs and vessels that allow the circulation of blood so as to transport nutrients, oxygen, other gases, and hormones to different parts of the body.
Blood contains different cells like white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets.
White blood cells ( also called leukocytes) work closely with immune system. They provide defense against pathogen ( disease causing organisms) through various ways ( like ingesting foreign material, producing antibodies to clear the antigens). By doing so, they protect us from infection and disease.
