From the previous question, is this statement True or False.
1. Action potential travels down the T- tubule
2. A voltage sensitive protein changes shape.
3. The Ca+ channel in the sacroplasmic reticulum causing a Ca+ influx into the scaroplasm.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

What is the role of calcium in the cross bridge cycle ?
Attaching to Troponin on the actin filament, causing a shape change. The Tropomyosin exposes the actin attachment site for myosin.
It attaches straight to Tropomyosin on the myosin filament. 
The calcium attaches to both Troponin and Tropomyosin at the same time, connecting the actin and myosin filaments
Calcium is only required after the Tropomyosin has allowed myosin to bind to the exposed actin sit on the thin filament
