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.

Statements A-bands of the muscle are dark and contain myosin I-band are the light bands and contain actin During muscle contraction the A-band contracts The part between the two Z-lines is called as sarcomere The central part of thin filament, not over-lapped by thick filament is called H-zone of the above statements.

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. 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.
