Go through the following statements During muscle contraction, the width of A-band remains constant while I-band shortens. During muscle contraction, the Ca^(2+) released from the SR bind to the troponin component of thin filament The process of muscle contraction is faster in smooth muscle as they have a well developed sarcoplasmic reticulum. The red muscle fibres have abundant mitochondria, low glycogen and poorly formed sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Which of the following statements about the mechanism of muscle contraction are correct ? (i) Acetylcholine is released when the neural signal reaches the motor end plate. (ii)Muscle contraction is initiated by a signal sent by CNS via sensory neuron. (iii) During muscle contraction, isotropic band gets elongated (iv) Repeated activation of the muscles can lead to lactic acid accumulation.
