Assertion: on stimulation, a muscle cell releases calcium ions `(Ca^(2+))` from sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Reason: By reacting with a protien complex, `Ca^(2+)` uncover active sites on the actin filaments.

[A] : Upon stimulation of a muscle cell, cal- cium ions (Ca^(++)) are released from the sar- coplasmic reticulum. [R]: In reacting with a protein complex, Ca^(++) unmasks myosin binding sites on the ac-tin filaments.

Muscle relaxation involves release/trapping of calcium ion by sarcoplasmic reticulum.

In sarcoplasmic reticulum, Ca^(2+) binds to a calcium-bindig protein known as

Assertion. On receiving action potential via T-tubules, the sarcoplasmic reticulum releases Ca^(++) into the sarcoplasm. Reason. Ca^(++) uncover the active site of actin myofilament, allowing a meromyosin head to join this site.

The electronic configuration of calcium ion (Ca^(2+)) is

Following is given a randomly arranged list of events that occur at neuromuscluar junction to trigger mucle contraction. (i) Receptor sites on sarcolemma Nerve impulse (iii) Release of Ca^(+2) from sarcoplasmic reticulum (iv) The neurotransmitter acetylcholine is released (v) Sarcomere shorten (vi) Synaptic cleft (vii) Spread of impulses over sarcolemmna on T-tubules Which of the following gives the correct sequence of these steps?

Assertion:Action potential passes into the muscle fibre by way T-tubules and Z-line and sarcoplasmic reticulum release calcium ions into the sarcoplasm. Reason:The released calcium results in sliding of thin myofilaments over the thick myofilaments of the myofibrils, leading to contraction of the muscle

Assertion: Plants absorb calcium from soil in the form of calcium ions (Ca^(2+)) Reason: Calcium is required by meristematic and differentiating tissues.
