Muscle contraction occurs when the thin actin and thick myosin filaments slide past each other. It is generally assumed that this process is driven by cross-bridges which extend from the myosin filaments and cyclically interact with the actin filaments as ATP is hydrolysed.
Muscle contraction occurs when the thin actin and thick myosin filaments slide past each other. ... In this conformation the cross-bridge binds weakly to actin and attaches and detaches so rapidly that it can slip from actin site to actin site, offering very little resistance to stretch.
Assessing the health status of the patient before conduction an exercise test is important because the patient may have health conditions that would interfere with the exercise test.
