Read the following statements (i) In cardiac muscle fibres sacroplasmic reticulum is poorly formed (ii)B Blood supply is scanty in case of smooth muscle fibres (iii) Tropomyosin occurs in actin filaments in the form of complexes which are arranged over actin fibres and represent sites where myosin binds to actin. (iv) Salts of citrate and oxalates act as anticoagulants as they precipitate Ca^(2+) Select the correct statements

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.

Go through the following statements (i) The inner surface of atria have got transverse muscular ridges called papillary muscles. (ii) Chordae tendinae are special fibrous cords attached to the AV valves and prevent them from collapsing back into the atria during powerful vantricular contraction (iii) The neurogenic heart stops functioning immidiately after removal from the body. (iv) The conduction of cardiac impulse is slowest in the A.V. node. Which of these are correct ?

[A] : In vertebrates, motor fibres to striped muscle. parasympathetic fibres to smooth muscle. and preganglionic sympathetic ii- bres are cholinergic. [R]: Cholinergic designates the type of nerve fibre that releases acetylcholine from its ending when stimulated by a nerve impulse.
